Lake Tahoe’s first winter storm of the season is expected to arrive this weekend.

Winds will be gusting at about 50 mph in valleys and 100 mph along mountain tops ahead of a strong cold front Sunday, according to the National Weather Service in Reno.

Rain and snow showers will move into the region Sunday into Monday, with accumulating snow likely in the Sierra. Snow levels will start between 7,500 and 9,000 feet on Sunday, falling to about 5,000 feet by Monday.

Overnight lows will be in the 20s starting tonight. The high temp for next Monday and Tuesday may not reach 40 degrees.

    Hopefully more snow than rain at the upper elevations. It would be nice to get the ski resorts open by Thanksgiving to bring the skiers and boarders into town. Of course anything wet that comes down is welcome.
