...More snow expected in Sierra and western Nevada Saturday night
through Tuesday...

Another cold Pacific weather system from the Gulf of Alaska is
forecast to bring snow to the northern Sierra Saturday evening and
spread east and south across western Nevada and the central Sierra
Sunday morning. Snow amounts in the northern Sierra could total up to
a foot in the higher elevations while a few inches are possible in
the valleys of northeast California and extreme western Nevada by
Sunday morning. Two more weather systems tracking east from the
eastern Pacific off the northern California coast are expected to
bring additional snow to the Sierra with rain or snow in the valleys
on Monday and Tuesday as temperatures and snow levels slowly rise.

Persons planning travel across the Sierra Saturday night into Tuesday
can expect to encounter winter driving conditions. Stay tuned to NOAA
Weather Radio or your local media for further updates on this
developing winter weather.
