... Gulf of Alaska storm should reach the area Wednesday...

A cold area of low pressure in the Gulf of Alaska is forecast to
drop south toward the Sierra and western Nevada later this week.
This storm will bring a cold front with a period of moderate to
heavy precipitation into the area between Wednesday afternoon and
Thursday.

Ahead of the front Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night... windy
conditions are possible along and south of Interstate 80. Gusts of
40 to 45 mph may occur along Highway 395 from Reno south to
Mammoth Lakes. Sierra ridge gusts could reach 100 mph as the cold
front approaches.

Along the front rain and snow should move into northeast California
and northwest Nevada Wednesday afternoon and reach the Reno-Tahoe
area Wednesday evening. Several inches of snow are possible in the
Sierra as snow levels drop below 6000 feet Wednesday night.

Once the front passes Thursday snow levels could drop to the
western Nevada Valley floors as cold air moves into the area.
There is potential for a second burst of precipitation moving into
the area Thursday... which could bring snow accumulations to the
western Nevada Valley floors.
