Tahoe Daily Snow
By Bryan Allegretto, Forecaster Posted 7 years ago December 4, 2016
Case Study 2, Heavier Snowfall on Friday...
Summary
Sunny today with highs in the 40's. Gusty winds of 40+ mph for the mountain tops. Colder air moves in Monday with highs only in the 30's with gusty ridge winds continuing. Tuesday a low moves through bringing even colder air and the chance for some light snow showers. Not expecting more than a dusting and highs in the 20's through Wednesday. Gusty mountain top winds should continue. Wednesday night into Thursday light snow could break out as warm air ahead of the next storm overrides the cold air in place. We could see a few inches of snow on the mountains, with snow levels rising above 7000 feet on Thursday. Thursday night into Friday a strong storm could move in with lots of moisture. Snow levels start high Thursday night around 8000 feet before falling to lake level Friday. We could see up to 2 feet of snow on the mountains with this storm and several inches at lake level by the time it ends Friday evening. Stay tuned for updates. After a break next weekend another storm may move in Monday the 12th and another Wednesday the 14th.
