The elevation on a winter weather advisory is up to 5,000 feet starting 8 p.m. and lasting through 4 p.m. Thursday, a sign some of the enthusiasm forecasters had for this storm is waning a bit. We’re likely to see a rain-snow mix in the Valley.
Any lake effect snows that occur from this storm are expected to hit Alpine County and other points southeast of Lake Tahoe. That might include parts of southern Carson Valley, though.
Today will be likely be a bit sunnier than Tuesday with a high temperature near 55 degrees and the wind out of the east before it pulls a 180 to the west at 5-15 mph as the front approaches. We might see rain after 10 p.m. mixing with snow around 4 a.m. Thursday.
