A fresh storm system is currently impacting Northern California and Oregon, bringing with it more snowfall to the Northwest region. This comes in the aftermath of a powerful blizzard that recently struck California’s Sierra Nevada mountains, leaving behind a staggering 10.5 feet of snow over a span of four days.
The latest storm is expected to bring heavy snowfall to the mountainous areas of Northern California and Oregon, with forecasts predicting over a foot of snow from the southern part of California’s Cascade Mountains to southern Oregon and western Wyoming. Areas along Interstate 80 near Donner Summit, which were already hit hard by the previous snowstorm, could receive an additional 2 to 4 inches of snow this week.
While the new storm is projected to taper off by Tuesday night, some snowfall may persist in parts of the central Rockies through Thursday. Stay tuned for continuous coverage of breaking news and live events related to this ongoing weather situation.
