Cold Slider Comes Tonight

The weather models are moving our slider slightly further west on its trajectory to Tahoe. That could bode well for more moisture for the storm to work with. I was not bullish on this storm yesterday. Today I am a little more optimistic. The storm comes in tonight and will stick around through Tuesday. The impact of this storm will be felt on the eastern side of the Sierra Crest and the Carson Range.

Perhaps the biggest impact is the cold front that is coming with this storm. Temperatures will be much colder through most of the week.

Nobody is trying to predict snowfall amounts. I am going with 6-18 inches for the Carson Range by Tuesday night. Slightly more for the eastern side of the Sierra Crest.

Here is a look at the Precip forecast by the EC weather model:



Dry weather follows through the week.
