Strong Spring Storm Coming to a Mountain Near You

As the year moves on, the storms get weaker. However, we have what appears to be a couple of moderate to strong storms for this time of year. These storms will usher in much cooler weather into the foreseeable future.

This will be a weekend storm that starts on Friday and should clear out on Sunday:

Friday April 10

Storm moves onto the coastal area. Notice the cold air to the North and West.

Early Saturday April 11

This is the peak of the storm. There is a moisture connection to the south so snow levels will be a bit tricky. This should be all snow for Mt. Rose.

Sunday Afternoon April 12

Storm is winding down and cold air moves in.

After this storm clears out, cool air moves in and we will see a very noticeable difference. In addition, another storm is setting up for next week:

Friday April 17


Looking at the next couple of weeks of forecasted precipitation shows a potential for 2-5 feet of snow for the Carson Range with more on the West Shore of the lake above 7,500.



Did we really think Mother Nature was going to transition to summer in March? Trust me, that beautiful weather we saw for the past month or more will be offset by much cooler and stormy weather as we begin the transition to El Nino and then possibly a Super El Nino.
