...WET WEATHER DEVELOPING SUNDAY...CONTINUING THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT
WEEK...

THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF PACIFIC STORMS IS DUE TO ARRIVE LATER
SUNDAY OR SUNDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM SHOULD OPEN THE GATES TO A
VERY WET PATTERN NEXT WEEK.

IT IS STILL TOO EARLY HOWEVER...TO SAY WHEN AND HOW MUCH EACH
INDIVIDUAL SYSTEM WILL IMPACT CENTRAL CALIFORNIA. BUT CONFIDENCE
IS PRETTY HIGH THAT A CHANGE IS IN STORE...AND SIGNIFICANT RAIN
AND HIGH ELEVATION SNOW IS A GOOD BET FOR NEXT WEEK.

SNOW LEVELS WILL RISE AND FALL WITH EACH INDIVIDUAL SYSTEM...BUT
IN GENERAL WILL BE BETWEEN 5000 AND 7000 FEET. SNOW COULD BE
MEASURED IN YARDS OVER THE 5 TO 6 DAY PERIOD...NOT FEET.

FURTHER STATEMENTS ON THIS CHANGING PATTERN WILL BE ISSUED OVER
THE NEXT FEW DAYS...AS DETAILS BECOME MORE CLEAR.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA ALL HAZARDS RADIO OR YOUR FAVORITE NEWS SOURCE
FOR THE LATEST INFORMATION.

gonna make for some muddy fishing.but I hope our lakes start to rise.I love global warming!!!

Do you still remember the way? Don't forget your passport. Homeland Security is pretty strict up at the top of the pass.

Seriously, check ahead Tom. This time last year someone spun off the road coming down from Pyramid on black ice, and was killed. There are a lot of low lying spots where ice forms just south of Pyramid.
