No April Fools; 3 Storms in 7 Days
The powder days aint over yet as we are tracking 3 storms in the next 7 days. The middle storm is quite large for this time of year and will bring powder to the mountain. Storm 1 (4/1 - 4:00 am - 4/3 - 2:00am) Storm 1 will last slightly less than 48 hours. This is a fairly weak storm and a very warm storm. I expect snow levels to start in the neighborhood of 9,000-10,000 feet. Eventually those levels will drop to the 7,000 foot range. There will be strong shadowing and I expect only light rain/snow for the Carson Range. Storm 2 (4/5 - 2:00pm - 4/6 - 11:00pm) This is a much larger storm and is the storm we talked about in past posts that we have been tracking for late in the first week in April. However, this storm is very fast moving and will clear the area in about 36 hours. It will be cooler and has the possibility of bringing very strong winds to the area. If this storm stalls or is delayed, it could mean a major event for the area. We will have to keep an eye on it.
