LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Forecasters are predicting that another series of storms will hit Northern California this week, bringing several inches of rain.

The National Weather Service in Sacramento said waves of moisture are set to move over the West Coast beginning on Wednesday and continuing into Thursday, when between 1 and 3 inches of rain is forecast for Lake County.

A second storm is expected from Friday to Saturday, with a third storm forecast for Sunday to Monday.

Snow levels in the mountains are expected to drop to 3,500 feet on Thursday and 1,500 feet by Saturday across California, forecasters said.

In Lake County specifically, a chance of snow in the higher elevations is forecast for Friday night and Saturday.

Temperatures will range from nighttime lows in the mid 30s up to the mid 50s during the daytime during the coming week, according to the forecast.

The calls for rain and possibly snow have renewed concerns for flooding, the National Weather Service said.

Lake County's streams and creeks continue to run high thanks to last week's storms.

Clear Lake itself was at 7.10 feet Rumsey late Sunday night. The lake is full when it reaches 7.56 feet Rumsey.
