FOR THE FORECAST:
A series of cool Pacific storms will move through the area all week. Expect mostly cloudy skies today with some light precipitation and a chance of some breaks later in the day. Today will be the warmest day of the week with a descending FL by tonight. Another weak front arrives Tuesday with some decent precipitation in the evening with the FL hovering in the 1000 M range. We should see a West South West flow for Monday into Tuesday. A more Westerly flow for Wednesday, light/moderate snow can be expected just above the valley floor as the jet stream remains over Northern California with several more colder fronts heading our way for later in the week. Bring on the powder!!!! Regular posts begin on Wednesday. Depending on the models, we could easily receive from 50 to 1.25 meters of snow by Friday evening with this parade of frontal bands.
Weak front today with a break later on in the day.
Most snow falling Monday night.
Tuesday into Wednesday, looks like some good snowfall Tuesday into Wednesday.
Juicier front for Thursday into Friday.
Long range model shows another front for Friday with some weak ridging by the weekend..
