More rain and high winds coming for Bay Area, Tahoe to get more snow
A dry spell for storm-weary Bay Area residents will end Tuesday as a system coming north from Alaska heads toward the region, bringing with it rain, high winds, possible lightning strikes and a couple of feet of snow in Tahoe.
Mountainous areas are expected to receive up to an inch of rain, while lower-lying regions could get up to three-quarters of an inch. Strong winds will accompany the wet weather, with gusts likely to range between 30 and 60 miles per hour. There’s also a 15 to 20 %chance of thunderstorms, Gass said. The worst of the system will pass over the region on Tuesday, but wet conditions will likely last until early Thursday. Major river flooding isn’t expected, NWS officials said, though some localized incidents on highways are a possibility. The combination of high winds and saturated soil from numerous past storms could down trees and spark some isolated power outages.
