Yerington, NV (89447)

... Periods of wet weather will continue through the weekend... 

A series of systems will bring periods of rain and snow to the 
region into Sunday. There will also be periods of gusty winds 
through Saturday, especially along the Highway 395 corridor south
of Bridgeport where winds could occasionally gust over 45 mph.

The current system today lasting into Saturday morning will bring
lowering snow levels with increasing travel impacts for Sierra 
passes during this time.

A colder system is expected late Saturday into Sunday morning 
with snow looking more likely down to all valley floors. Light 
snow will be possible with higher confidence for areas along the
Portola-Reno-Fallon line to see the best chances during this 
time. Up to 2 inches of snow is possible for these areas by 
Sunday morning. This includes the Reno-Sparks Metro area. Keep in 
mind that it doesn't take much snow to bring travel difficulties.

Bottom line: travel is likely to be difficult for weekend travel
and ski traffic crossing over the Sierra starting Friday afternoon,
with slick conditions possible for portions of western Nevada 
Saturday night into Sunday. Make sure you are ready for winter 
driving conditions and allow extra time to reach your destination.
Check with caltrans or ndot for the latest travel restrictions

possible for many locations; however, we aren't able to pin down 
the location for the heaviest snow at this time. Keep in mind 
that it doesn't take much snow to bring travel difficulties and 
cars could pack down light snow amounts into ice.
