Snow once again in the Lake Tahoe area forecast

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - On the good side, we all had two days of sunshine to shovel out from the weekend's storms that dropped up to seven feet of snow on Lake Tahoe area ski resorts. But, all good things must come to an end.

Another cold low-pressure system will bring more snow and snow showers to the Sierra and Western Nevada Wednesday morning through evening, producing possible
slick road conditions for both commutes, with lake effect snow bands again possible late Wednesday night through Thursday. Cold conditions will continue with another chance of snow showers for the weekend according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Reno.

Once that system leaves, cold air will continue until a slider system looks to dip across northern Nevada Saturday evening into Sunday morning bringing chances for snowfall across the Sierra and western Nevada valleys. Exactly how far south that dip will be hasn't been determined.
