Bundle up — winter is back

The bulbs better be in the ground by now because winter is going to be back in Lake Tahoe starting tonight. White stuff is likely to be covering the ground Tuesday morning.

Winds are picking up now, with a lake wind advisory is in effect until Wednesday at 5am. Winds are from the west in the 20-30mph range, with gusts of 45mph. Wind gusts could hit 100mph on the ridges.

A couple of inches of snow are expected to accumulate at lake level or a little higher starting tonight and into Tuesday.

It’s expected to be windy all week, with more moisture coming in Friday.

Dress warm – Tuesday’s high in Lake Tahoe is expected to be 38 degrees.
