Your Latest Forecast

Power outages are possible tonight as strong winds move through the region. The High Wind Warning goes through 11 am Thursday, where wind gusts could reach 80 mph in wind prone areas like Washoe Valley. The Winter Weather Advisory for the Tahoe Basin goes through 8 am Thursday.

Mountain passes will be slick tonight, from ice and snow. While the snow level drops below lake level tonight, drier air will also filter in. Snow totals could reach a foot in the high Sierra since Wednesday morning.

Highs on Thursday will be in the lower 50’s, but will feel cooler with gusts in the 20’s and 30’s. Lows will be in the 30’s. Frost is possible in the foothills, so now is the time to cover up any sensitive plants. Friday morning will be cold, as lows fall below freezing.

This weekend will be nice and spring like with highs in the 60’s and 70’s.
