Winter storm warning issued by National Weather Service for elevations above 5,000 feet from Saturday to Sunday
A late-season storm is set to hit the Sierra Nevada region of Northern and Central California this weekend, bringing heavy snowfall and potential road closures. According to multiple reports, the National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning for elevations above 5,000 feet in the Sierra Nevada range from Saturday to Sunday.
Heavy snowfall is expected at elevations between 5,000 and 9,00 feet (1,524 to 2,70 meters), with up to 1-2 feet (about 3-6 centimeters) of snow possible above 9,00 feet. Rain is likely for lower elevations.
Interstate 80 and Highway 50 have already been impacted by the storm, with closures and traffic backups reported in the area. Drivers who were on I-80 before the closure were stuck in a backup for hours, according to reports from KCRA 3.
The late-season storm is expected to bring significant disruptions to travel plans and daily life in Northern California. Temperatures are also expected to be about 20-30 degrees cooler than Friday in the affected areas.
It's important for drivers to check road conditions before traveling and plan accordingly. The Sierra Nevada region is known for its unpredictable weather, especially during the spring months.
