A storm in California could deliver seven feet of fresh powder to some locations by Wednesday, and with an active weather pattern continuing in March, the state’s snowpack could approach record levels by the end of the snow season in April.
Eric Kurth, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Sacramento, said this storm stood out for its intensity, given that very heavy snowfall rates combined with high winds are creating whiteout visibilities.
A blizzard warning is in effect for the entire Sierra Nevada range into Wednesday, with winds gusting to 60 mph and snow falling at 2-to-4 inches per hour. Total snow accumulations could range from 3-to-7 feet above an elevation of 3,000 feet. Snow levels are expected to reach lower elevations, as they also did late last week, possibly down to 1,000 feet or lower.Even in the wintry Sierra Nevada, blizzard warnings are not the norm.
