A fast moving low pressure system will move through Lake Tahoe, the Sierra and Western Nevada Sunday and Sunday night, bringing with it another chance of snow.
Snow could impact travel in the Sierra on Sunday and in the valleys of western Nevada by Monday. Temperatures will be cold to start the week with well below freezing overnight low temperatures throughout the region.
The snow is expected to begin in the Sierra and Northeast California Sunday afternoon and then spread across Western Nevada by Sunday evening. Light to occasionally moderate snow will continues through Sunday night.
While snow amounts are not expected to be very heavy. The air mass will be cold enough for snow to accumulate down to the lower elevation valleys including Reno and Carson City.
Additional snow showers developing on Monday could also produce slick travel conditions for the afternoon and evening commute.
