>>> ALL
>>> ALL RIGHT. AS WE SAID BEFORE THE BREAK,
DRIVING ISN'T GOING TO BE EASY
THIS WEEK.
THIS WEEK. WE SAW SEVERAL CRASHES ALONG
PARTS OF I-80.
THIS WAS NEAR GRASS VALLEY.
LOOK AT THE PICTURE BEHIND ME.
OUT THERE THE SNOW SHUT DOWN
PARTS OF THE HIGHWAY NORTH AND
WEST OF LAKE TAHOE.
RIGHT NOW 80 WEST AND EASTBOUND
ARE CLOSED ONLY TWO SOME
TRUCKS.
TRUCKS.
TRUCKS. CHAINS ARE REQUIRED EXCEPT FOR
FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE WITH SNOW TIRES
FROM COLFAX TO THE NEVADA STATE
LINE.
LINE.
LINE. NOW, THE TAHOE AREA HAS A
WINTER STORM WARNING THROUGH
4:00 TOMORROW EVENING. TALK
ABOUT THIS NOW.
SNOWPLOW CREWS LOOKING ON
HIGHWAY 50 TRYING TO KEEP THE
ROADS AS CLEAR AS THEY CAN, BUT
THEY WANT YOU TO STILL EXPECT
DELAYS.
DELAYS.
DELAYS. CALTRANS IS ASKING EVERYONE TO
WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW IF YOU CAN.
AND WE WILL GET UPDATES IN A
FEW MINUTES.
FEW MINUTES. BUT FOR RIGHT NOW, LET'S TOSS
IT OVER AND SEE, IS THE RAIN
OUT OF THE WAY FINALLY?
>> WE ARE LOOKING AT SCATTERED
SHOWERS, BUT FOR THE MOST PART,
TODAY IS MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES.
YOU MAY GET OCCASIONAL RAIN
HERE AND THERE, BUT WE HAVE
THUNDER STORM CHANCES.
FOR THE MOST PART, THE BIGGEST
PORTION OF THE SYSTEM IS GONE
AS OF LAST NIGHT, AND THE WINDS
ALONG WITH IT FOR THE WINTER
WEATHER ADVISORY IS STILL IN
EFFECT AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO
SEE THAT FOR SOME AREAS OF THE
SIERRA BY TOMORROW.
HERE IS WHAT WE ARE LOOKING AT.
WE HAVE THAT MASSIVE SYSTEM
STARTING TO FALL APART.
IT'S STARTING TO WIDEN AND
SPREAD OUT.
SPREAD OUT. NOT AS TIGHTLY CENTERED AS IT
WAS WHEN IT MADE ITS WAY ON
SHORE OVER NORTHERN CALIFORNIA.
A LOT OF THE RAIN INTO SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA IS STARTING TO BREAK
UP.
UP.
UP. A
UP. A LOT
UP. A LOT OF AREAS NOT THAT FLUID
SYSTEM WE SAW YESTERDAY.
WE WILL SEE SCATTERED SHOWERS
CHANCES ACROSS NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA. THIS IS GOING TO
BRING SNOW FOR THE SIERRA, BUT
ALSO SNOW SHOWERS.
IT'S STARTING TO BREAK UP THE
SAME WAY IT IS ALONG THE VALLEY
AREAS.
AREAS.
AREAS. WE
AREAS. WE DID SEE SNOW LEVELS DROP
QUITE A BIT.
WE WILL SEE THEM RISE UP A BIT
AND THEN DROP, ONCE AGAIN, INTO
THE EVENING HOURS. SO WITH SNOW
SHOWERS OUT THERE, WE WILL SEE
AS MUCH AS ANOTHER FOOT
POSSIBLY EXPECTED.
POSSIBLY EXPECTED. SNOWFALL AND LOW SNOW LEVELS.
WE SEE A LOT OF THAT SNOW
MAKING ITS WAY HIGHER.
SCATTERED SNOW EAST OF PLASTER
BILL AS WELL.
A CLOSER LOOK HERE NEAR COLFAX,
THEY ARE GETTING THAT
COMBINATION OF WINTER WEATHER.
SEEING A LOT OF THAT SNOW
MIXTURE WITH ICE AND ALSO RAIN.
WE ARE LOOKING AT A LOT OF THE
LINES STARTING TO MOVE AND
ADJUST ACCORDING TO THESE SNOW
LEVELS AS THE SYSTEM MOVES UP
AND DOWN. SOME COLDNESS COMING
THROUGH, A LITTLE WARMTH, AND
AS WE SEE THE CLOUDS BREAK
APART, THIS LENDS A LOT OF COLD
AIR.
AIR.
AIR. WITH
AIR. WITH THE COLD AIR MOVING IN,
TREATING MORE INSTABILITY.
WE HAD A BLANKET OF CLOUD
COVERAGE.
COVERAGE.
COVERAGE. DIDN'T KEEP US WARM, BUT WARMER
THAN WE COULD FEEL WITHOUT THE
CLOUD COVERAGE. NOW, LETTING
MOST OF THE COLD AIR IN WILL
CREATE THUNDER STORM CHANCES.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK INTO
THANKSGIVING.

RAIN, AND THIS IS NOT SHOWING
