URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Reno NV
1231 PM PST Sat Jan 7 2023
A series of systems will impact the region through the middle part
of next week. Through Sunday, snowfall will impact the Sierra and
northeast California, in addition to portions of western Nevada.
A more potent atmospheric river will bring significant moisture to
the region Monday and Tuesday. Snow levels are expected to rise
Monday afternoon and evening, bringing the chance for heavy rain
and flooding impacts to the lower elevations. Regardless, major
snowfall accumulations are likely for the Sierra with chances
increasing for major snow impacts in western Nevada, particularly
above 5,000 feet.

...WINTER STORM WATCH IS REPLACED WITH ONE LONGER WINTER STORM
WARNING...
* CHANGES... Replaced the Winter Storm Watch with a Winter Storm
Warning and removed elevation distinction.
* WHAT...Heavy snow expected. Through Sunday night, total snow
accumulations of up to 4 inches, except 6 to 15 inches above
7000 feet. For Monday through Tuesday night, total snow
accumulations of 4 to 12 inches, except 1 to 5 feet above 7,000
feet. Wind gusts up to 50 mph with ridge tops gusting as high as
110 mph.
* WHERE...Mono County.
* WHEN...From 7 PM this evening to 4 AM PST Wednesday.
* IMPACTS...Travel could be very difficult to impossible. The
hazardous conditions could impact the morning or evening
commute. Very strong winds could cause extensive tree damage.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...With the atmospheric river on Monday, snow
levels will likely rise to 7,000-8,000 feet for a period of time
Monday afternoon and evening before falling once again. Urban
and small stream flooding is possible for poor drainage areas
due to current debris and snowpack. Additional heavy snow will
enhance the avalanche and snow load impacts through next week.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
Avoid travel if possible, you could be stuck in your vehicle for
many hours. If you must travel, prepare for long delays and carry
an emergency kit with extra food, water and clothing. If you stay
home, have a backup plan in case of power outages.
The latest road conditions can be obtained by calling 5 1 1 or
