...COOLER TEMPS, BREEZY WINDS, WITH RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS LATE
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY...

After several days of record-breaking high temperatures, an
incoming storm will bring the return of more typical early spring
weather.

* Another afternoon of breezy westerly winds today, with winds
turning southerly and increasing further on Sunday. Most gusts
will be in the 30-40 mph range on Sunday for valley locations
with typical travel and recreational impacts. Sierra ridges may
gust above 80 mph Sunday afternoon through Monday morning.

* Valley rain and mountain snow will reach the Sierra late Sunday
night into Monday morning, spreading into western Nevada Monday
and Monday night. Liquid totals remain light overall with the
highest totals favoring the Sierra crest from Tahoe south
through Mono County, and portions of the eastern Sierra and
western Nevada south of US-50. There may be a large variation in
liquid totals over short distances due to the showery nature of
the system. There is also a slight chance for thunderstorms to
develop Monday.

* Snow levels will remain near 6000 feet, with accumulation likely
to be limited to passes above 7000 feet due to the recent warmth
and late-March sun angle. The high Sierra could pick up 4-10
inches of snow, locally higher in southern Mono County. Be
prepared for winter conditions and give yourself extra travel
time if crossing the Sierra.

* While nothing out of the ordinary, it will be significantly
cooler Monday compared to the recent warmth and highs may
struggle to reach 60 degrees in the warmest of valleys.
