Tahoe Daily Snow

Heads up, there may be fresher snow! Read the latest Tahoe Daily Snow

By Bryan Allegretto, Forecaster Posted 10 years ago April 23, 2014

We picked up around 3-4 inches in total today on Donner Summit from the snow showers.  Mainly on the cold surfaces and less on the warmer surfaces.  Squaw and Alpine reported an inch early this morning so they may have additional amounts to report tomorrow morning.  Kirkwood reported 5 inches this morning.  We had a coating of snow in town this morning and up to an inch in spots around the lake.

A quicky update this evening on the Friday system.  Everything is still on track for another cold system Friday.  This one will have more moisture but not the impressive amounts some models showed a couple days ago.  We should see snow down to lake level but it will have a tough time accumulating.  On the mountains we could see 3-6 inches of snow on the East side of the basin and 6-9 on the West side.  Highest peaks along the crest could see up to a foot.  Friday and Saturday should be the last 2 days for fresh powder on ski resorts this season.

Another system moving through to our North Sunday could bring a few more inches of snow to the mountains.  Friday through Sunday highs will only be in the 30's on the mountains.  Next week we quickly rebound into the 60's on Monday.  That's April... A cutoff low may sit off the coast most of next week and could come inland by the first weekend in May with more precip.

Another update in the morning....BA
