This week's weather roller coaster in Lake Tahoe: Snow on Monday, mid-70s on Sunday

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - You can do it, just a few more days! When you planned out your 2022 calendar did you ever think we'd see dry January-March and a snowy April and May?

The week ahead starts with a chance of snow through Wednesday but fast-forwards to almost summer-like weather by the end of the week.

The first part of the week will be rather cold for May, but we will warm nicely into the weekend. Can we say adios to winter yet? We’ll likely see a warming trend during this May 13-19 period but starting off cool so that

averages out to “near normal”. Storm risk lessening - leaning below normal on precipitation, according to the National Weather Serice (NWS) in Reno
