First Real Storm Eve...

Summary

Today will be mostly sunny with highs in the 40's. The winds will be picking up again on the mountain tops with gusts to 50 mph. That increases to 60 mph tonight. For Wednesday we have a storm moving in with rain for most elevations and snow levels around 9000 feet, falling closer to 8000 feet by evening. Wednesday night snow levels continue to slowly fall with snow starting to accumulate above the 8000 foot level. We could see 5-10 inches of snow above 8000 feet Wednesday night. Thursday we have a cold front moving through dropping snow levels below lake level. There will be heavier snow with the front and then we could see snow showers continue into Thursday night as low pressure moves through the area. We could see snow accumulate at all levels. We could see 3-11 inches at lake level, and 5-25 inches on the mountains. The highest amounts as you go up the mountain and West of the lake. Friday we should clear out with the sun returning and temperatures in the 30's. Over the weekend we should see milder air move in with high temperatures back into the 40's. We could see another wet storm move in Sunday night into Monday with high snow levels. There is still a lot of uncertainty with this storm. The forecast models are split on the pattern we see Thanksgiving week with some keeping us dry all week and other bringing in a storm on Thanksgiving.
