SYNOPSIS
* Dry weather prevails this weekend with very cold nighttime temperatures.
* Increased winds and light snow showers are possible Tuesday night into Wednesday morning.
* A stronger winter storm may bring periods of gusty winds, heavy Sierra snow, and light snowfall to valley floors during the second half of next week.
DISCUSSION
This weekend will feature dry weather and colder temperatures as high pressure amplifies in the far NE Pacific. A couple weak troughs embedded within the northwest flow regime will quickly advance across the northwestern states through Monday, directing waves of cold air into the region. As a result, temperatures will be quite chilly this weekend with daytime highs in the 30s and 40s. It'll be brutally cold during the overnight hours as temps fall into the teens and single digits. Cold prone locales (i.e., Truckee, Bodie, Bridgeport) may even achieve sub-zero readings through Monday morning. Needless to say, be sure to bundle up this weekend if you plan on heading outdoors!
The intermission in the stormy weather will be short-lived as showers return as early as Tuesday. The incipient "storm" appears to be more of the slider-type variety, which tend to be colder with snow levels below valley floors but devoid of moisture. This will likely yield a period of light snow showers Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning, though snow accumulations (if any at all) are favored to be light with only a 10-30% chance of snow totals exceeding one inch by Wednesday AM. The caveat with these slider- type storms is their propensity to produce bands of enhanced snowfall that leads to locally greater snow totals. It's far too early to say if/where any snow bands develop, but something to keep in mind as we go into Tuesday.
A much stronger winter storm is looking more likely during the second half of next week with significant Sierra snow (2 or more feet of snow), valley snow, and strong winds impacting recreation and aviation all on the table. There is still a lot to sort out with this storm being several days out so confidence is low on details, but it's certainly worth paying very close attention to.
-Salas
AVIATION
Widespread VFR conditions with light breezes will prevail this weekend with low odds of FZFG and IFR conditions at KTRK each morning (particularly between the 10z-16z timeframe). Increased winds and showers likely return Tuesday with a strong winter storm possible late next week.

HYDROLOGY
The Pit River:
* Flood Advisory remains in effect for the Pit River and tributaries in northwest Lassen County through 12 Noon Monday.
The Pit River near Canby gage is decreasing and has fallen below flood stage. Downstream about 30 miles near Bieber, flood levels continue to slowly recede, but flooding impacts to many rural roads and low lying structures may continue. Cold temperatures and ice in slow moving and ponded areas may exacerbate impacts and damage structures and/or block drainage areas.
Elsewhere, no flooding impacts are expected through early next week.
