SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – As the high pressure pivots back eastward, widespread rain and possible thunderstorms are expected for the first few days of the week ahead in South Lake Tahoe.
The National Weather Service (NWS) in Reno says that as the high moves over
Texas, a low off the Pacific Northwest starts to creep in. We will likely see drier conditions and the possible return of wind concerns. However, if the high or low wiggles in one way or another, that could change. They are confident that in the long term, temperatures will decrease. Highs will stay below normal through the remainder of this week.
