LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – A storm coming from the Gulf of Alaska is expected to bring more snow to Northern California.
The National Weather Service issued a special weather statement Sunday about the possibility of snow overnight and into Monday morning.
The forecast calls for a dusting of snow for interior Northern California as the result of a cold – but not particularly wet – winter system arriving overnight.
Forecasters are predicting snow levels to lower to a couple of hundred feet elevation into Monday morning.
Now is expected to end in the lower elevations by Monday afternoon, but will continue over the higher Sierra elevations until later in the day.
The specific forecast for Lake County calls for snow in the higher elevations, such as above Upper Lake near the High Glade Lookout, with rain more likely in the low-lying areas.
However, Lake County residents on Sunday evening were already reporting that they were getting snow, especially in areas such as Cobb.
Travelers are urged to be prepared for slick roads at lower-than-normal elevations.
In Lake County, the rest of the week, including New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, is forecast to be mostly clear and sunny.
Daytime highs this week will be in the low 50s and lows in the high 20s, according to the forecast.
