Tuesday Update.

No real rain in town overnight.  High temp on Martin Luther King Jr. Day was 69.4F at Walnut and King.  It was a high 81.3F at noon on Sunday.  Currently, at 12:20, on Tuesday, it is 59.2F.  Notice a cooling trend?  No snow reported up in Tahoe.  Okay, I only checked Squaw and Kirkwood, but that is indicative.   There is still an outside chance for s snow flurry in the north.  But let us move on.

NWS has issued a Winter Storm Watch for Thursday afternoon through Friday afternoon.  This will be a start to a skiing base at lower elevations, but far from enough to make things start to go off.  Except at the highest elevations.  If you are biting at the bit to ski, but don't want to hit rocks, wait another week, as there are more storms on the way.

Sorry for the delayed post this of yesterday's forecast.  Need to work out the glitches.  Nothing more to add today.  I'll take a long look at this week's storm, and let you know the details in tomorrows post.  For now, think about prepping your yard and home for the coming rains.  While last night's storm was a complete bust, these next three look like they will brings some rain, and cold.  Snow levels could be down to 3000 feet on Friday, and then hang at less than 5000 feet into the storm on Sunday.  More rain likely to follow.
