Dunnigan, California

... Active winter weather returns to the region toward the
middle of next week...

High pressure will build over northern California through
Monday... with dry and tranquil Fall weather remaining over the
region. However... unsettled and wintry weather will return by
midweek... as a series of storms move through northern California.
The first of the systems looks like it will move across northern
California late Tuesday and into Wednesday... bringing some valley
rain and mountain snow to the region. However... it will open the door
for a stronger system late Thursday and Thursday night. Locally
heavy rains... mountain snows... and breezy conditions are expected
to develop Thursday and intensify Thursday night. The more active
weather pattern may continue into next weekend.

Travelers crossing mountain passes will likely have to Cope with
heavy snowfall accumulations on Thursday... with snow levels
dropping as low as 4500 ft by Thursday.
