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

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

western Nevada Valley floors.
