.A stronger weather system will move through northern California
through Tuesday. It will bring periods of strong winds and heavy
snow to the higher elevations. A period of higher snow levels
today will limit snow impacts to near passes and higher but snow
levels will fall again by Tuesday morning. If traveling through
the Sierra Cascade range expect chain controls, long delays and
possible closures. Mudslides and rockslides could impact mountain
roads making them impassable for a day or more.

Mudslides also possible across steeper terrain.

* Confidence...High.

* Locations...Interstate 80 over Donner pass, Highway 50 over
Echo summit, Highway 88 over Carson pass, and Lassen park.

* Timing...periods of heavy snow through Tuesday evening before
dropping off to lighter snow Tuesday night.

5500 feet with 2 to 5 feet of snow possible above 6000 feet
between today and Tuesday evening.

* Snow levels...snow levels around 7000 feet dropping on Tuesday

an emergency. If you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food,
and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency. Strong winds
are also possible. This will make travel very hazardous or
impossible.
