By Bryan Allegretto, Forecaster Posted 8 years ago March 21, 2017
Wet/White Week...
Summary
Cloudy with rain and snow showers today. Snow levels sitting near to just above 7000 feet before falling tonight to lake level. We could see several inches of snow on the mountains above 7000 feet. Winds will be gusting to 65 mph on the mountain tops. Highs in the 30's on the mountains to low 40's at lake level. Wednesday a weak wave moving through could bring a dusting of snow to lake level, and an inch or two to the mountains. Highs again remain in the 30's on the mountains to near 40 at lake level. Winds still gusting to 45 mph up high. We should see a break Thursday with clouds and sun and highs remaining cool. The winds should come down a bit from Wednesday. Friday into Saturday another weak storm moves in. Snow levels look to hover around 6500-7000 feet on Friday before falling below lake level Friday night. We could see several more inches of snow on the mountains by Saturday afternoon, with a coating to an inch or two at lake level. It looks like another break is possible Sunday with cool air in place. Then a colder but weaker system could move through for Sunday night. That could bring a light accumulation of snow to the mountains. Next Tuesday we may see the ridge of high pressure build near the West Coast bringing drier and warmer weather for midweek. We may see another storm move in towards the end of next week.
