Snow likely by Thursday

Oct. 31 2011

A major change in Tahoe’s weather is in store for later this week.

A ridge of high pressure off the Pacific Coast will drift westward, opening the door to winter storms coming down from the Gulf of Alaska.

The first one is due Thursday into Friday. Winds will begin to pick up Thursday night ahead of the storm, and temperatures will plummet. This will be a cold storm, with snow levels dropping below 5,000 feet. The orographics also look good — the angle of the storm’s approach should be excellent for snow production. So while it will not be a particularly moist system, the dynamics are favorable and we could see 12 inches or more by Friday night.

After a short break on Saturday it looks like we might get another storm on Sunday.

In the meantime, look for some brisk temperatures Tuesday as an “inside slider” storm drops down into Nevada and heads east, dragging some cold air behind it.

Stay tuned for details.

Snow due tonight: 12″-plus possible

Tuesday Oct. 4 2011

The first punch of two-step winter storm moving into the West has pretty much passed through the Sierra this morning after bringing some scattered rain showers and high elevation snow. But that was only the beginning.

The real story is the follow up system that’s moving down the coast now from the Gulf of Alaska. This one is twinning with a plume of moisture that’s swept across the Central Pacific in a case of perfect early October timing. The two together should be good enough to bring snow levels down to below 6000 feet tonight with enough moisture to present the higher peaksa round Tahoe with about a foot of new snow. With more than an inch of precipitable water in this system, we could see as much as 18 inches at the highest peaks by Thursday.

Winds should pick up again this afternoon ahead of the front, and we should see rain late today, turning to snow tonight below 7000 feet. The heaviest precipitation looks to be overnight and into early Wednesday morning, but showers should linger all the way into Thursday before this system heads east.

Stay tuned for more details as conditions change.

High temperature forecasts:

Lake Level:

Tuesday 52
Wednesday 38
Thursday 42

7000 feet

Tuesday 45
Wednesday 35
Thursday 36

La Nina building this fall

LA NINA UPDATE Oct 2011

A weak La Nina condition remains in place across the Central Pacific in early Fall, with sea surface temperatures in the region at least .5 degrees below normal. The condition is expected to strengthen a bit as we head from fall into winter, but remain weaker than last season’s La Nina. A La Nina condition, even a weak one, is expected to mean a colder and wetter winter in the Pacific Northwest and a drier season in the Southwest. Sitting between these two, Tahoe is dependent on the whims of each storm and how far the jet stream dips south. Last season, of course, we got nearly every storm that came off the Pacific. One thing that should be true is that we are less likely to see the kind of big, warm, wet storm that comes off the Southern Pacific. The storms we do get will tend to be smaller, and colder, but they can add up, and they can bump up against each other to produce plenty of powder.
