A strong winter storm is spinning into California this week. Here’s a timeline of its impacts
December is cutting in line and bringing its entourage of rain, wind and snow to Northern California this week. Bay Area residents are already getting a taste of this upcoming shift in the weather pattern as bitter, cold air sweeps into the region today. This cold air will be followed up by a winter storm that will bring strong winds and rounds of rain to most of Northern California…. The bitter cold air mass settling in Tuesday will help keep the snowline in the Sierra Nevada close to 1,000 feet through the rest of the week…. This means that parts of the Sierra Nevada, including Donner Pass and several ski resorts above 7,000 feet like Kirkwood and Palisades could end up seeing as much as 4 feet of snow between Thursday and Friday.
