Epic rains and snows for California

A major storm will continue to bombard California during the next one to two days. Here is an estimation of rainfall amounts for Sacramento, San Francisco, and Los Angeles from our ExacTrack Computer Model. Look at the snow forecast for Lake Tahoe. That's 29 inches of snow in just two days...and that's probably not the highest totals. In fact, our computer model only shades in colors up to 28 inches. The high Sierras (in pink) south to Yosemite may receive up to 10 FEET of snow. Click here for a report from CNN.
