Summary

Today through Wednesday we have a short break with some clouds and sun and highs in the 40's. The winds could still be gusty on the mountains with one storm departing and another approaching. By late Wednesday ridge top winds could start to approach 90+ mph. By Thursday afternoon a strong cold front approaches with heavy snow ahead of and with the front by evening, and showers behind it into Friday. Snow levels start above 8,000 feet but fall during the day Thursday down to 7000 feet by evening and below lake level Thursday night. We could see several inches of snow at lake level, and 10-20+ inches of snow on the mountains. For the weekend we clear out but with cold air is in place. High temperatures may only be in the 30's at lake level and 20's up on the mountains. It looks like the next storm could move in as Sunday night. This storm looks to have low snow levels. We have to watch to see how much moisture it could bring in. We could see another cold system move in Wed-Thu next week before the ridge builds in with drier weather for the weekend of the 27th.
