TODAY'S FORECAST -

SHOWERS! 43°F 6:30AM Hey hey Giovanni here. Mostly quiet weather today as only a few showers are expected. Scattered snow showers will be possible above 6000ft, but no accumulation is expected. Expect winter driving conditions nonetheless. Today's temperatures may reach the mid 50s with overnight lows in the low 40s. A weaker, but somewhat wet storm arrives Saturday bringing us the potential for another round of showers and Sierra snow through Monday.

We will remain unsettled with the potential for more rain through Wednesday before we begin to clear out by Thursday morning or possibly sooner as these troughs are tough to forecast. Warmer and dry weather looks likely late in the week with high temperatures rebounding back into the low 70s..

The long range forecast looks to dry out late next week with warmer and dry weather likely as we head into the last week of May. Have a fantastic Monday!
