TAHOE LEVEL, AND 2 TO 4 INCHES IN MONO COUNTY ALONG
HIGHWAY 395.
RAIN SHOWERS ARE LIKELY IN WESTERN NEVADA THURSDAY,
WITH STRONGER SHOWERS POTENTIALLY LOWERING SNOW LEVELS
TO NEAR VALLEY FLOORS. LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS ARE POSSIBLE
THURSDAY MORNING CREATING SLICK CONDITIONS FOR THE MORNING
COMMUTE...MAINLY NEAR OR ABOVE 5000 FEET.
THE SECOND STORM FOR FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY IS STRONGER,
BUT IS GOING TO MOVE INLAND FARTHER SOUTH. WHILE SOME
SNOW IS EXPECTED FOR THE TAHOE BASIN, THE HEAVIER SNOW
FALL WILL LIKELY BE SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 50 WHERE ANOTHER
FOOT OR MORE OF SNOW IS EXPECTED ALONG THE SIERRA CREST.
