A series of winter storms are forecasted to hit the Sacramento Valley and Sierra Nevada, bringing heavy rain and snow and creating hazardous travel conditions through next week. The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for the Sacramento Valley and foothills, with up to 6 inches of rain expected. In the Sierra Nevada, a Winter Weather Advisory is in effect, predicting significant snowfall and gusty winds. Snow levels may fluctuate, potentially causing rain-snow transitions in the Lake Tahoe Basin. A colder storm arriving on Monday is expected to lower snow levels even further, with motorists advised to prepare for chain controls and delays. Travelers can stay updated on road conditions by checking Caltrans QuickMap. The upcoming storms are a stark contrast to the previously dry conditions and will bring much-needed precipitation to the region.
