Submitted by paula on Tue, 02/09/2016 - 8:36am
With a snowpack 130% of average, the warm temperatures which are forecast this week in South Lake Tahoe aren't worrying those watching the drought situation, yet.
A high pressure system over the west coast will bring record, or near record, temperatures up and down the coast with Sacramento in the 70s and Los Angeles near 90. Reno will be in the 60s.
The long range forecast from accuweather.com calls for wet weather back again soon. One system next week could bring rain, but stronger chances of rain and snow over the last two weeks of the month.
