1/22/2010 Weather
Short Term: This benign weather patter will continue through tomorrow. A weak system will move through tomorrow bringing some light snow. If you have been following the California weather - the Seirra's just had a nice 60+inch storm cycle.
Long Term: The change - a large low-pressure system is tracking north toward the PNW and is expected to arrive sometime Sunday night or early Monday morning. This is coming from the SW so the game is back on for freezing levels being close to pass level. So far, it is looking like snow with the help of our east flow friend.
