NOAA is already informing us about the next winter storm for California. They’re calling for 1-2 feet of snow in Tahoe on Sunday.
“We’re still in the midst of this storm but we also wanted to get the word out that we’re expecting another winter storm on Sunday! Heavy snow is likely on Sunday, with close to 2 feet possible over higher peaks. This will impact mountain travel and lead to travel delays! This system could bring gusty winds across Northern California, which could cause local power outages.” – NOAA Sacramento, CA today
This Sunday storm is forecast to be a bit colder than the current storm in California.
“A second storm in a series of systems over the eastern Pacific will move southeast on Sunday. This storm will be slightly colder than the first system that is affecting our area now.” – NOAA Hanford, CA today
The current storm is still hitting California’s mountains right now. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect in the Sierra until 4am Friday morning.
Today’s Snow Totals as of 5:30pm aren’t quite what we hoped for:
- Mammoth = 3-5″
- Squaw = 1″
- UC Berkeley Snow Lab on Donner Pass = 2.7″
“7 cm new snow last 28.5 hours, most of it graupel.” – UC Berkeley Snow Lab at 4:30pm
