Weather Map And Summary Description
The letter, L on the map represents low pressure and the letter H on the map represents high-pressure. The blue lines with triangles on them represent a cold front and the red lines with half circles on them represent a warm front. A stationary front will be a red and blue line with alternating blue triangles and red half circles. An occluded front will be indicated by a purple line with purple half circles and purple triangles. The polar Jetstream is indicated by yellow arrows and the longer the arrows, the stronger, the Jetstream. Green arrows represent the tropical Jetstream, which is shown much less frequently as the polar jet is much more pronounced, especially in the winter months. A trough of low pressure is indicated by light blue dashed line.

Tahoe-Reno-Carson Weather Map And Summary
Prepared for the downtown areas of King Beach, Tahoe City, Truckee, Incline Village,
South Lake Tahoe, Reno, Carson City, Minden, Dayton, Fernley, Fallon, Silver Springs and Yerington
Short range (Saturday through Tuesday): A moist zonal (west to east) pattern is setting up for most of the period from Saturday through Tuesday. This should produce cloudy to mostly cloudy skies Saturday through Tuesday with a good chance of rain for Tahoe at Lake level. And a chance of rain for the Reno and Carson areas also expected. And a minor chance of rain for the Fallon-Fernley-Silver Springs-Yerington areas.
Long range (Wednesday through Friday): Partly cloudy skies expected Wednesday before another storm system moves in Thursday and Friday. This storm system will start out with rain for all the above areas. But as colder air moves in from the north the possibility of snow may return to Tahoe at Lake level Friday and Friday night. For the remaining above areas, there’s a minor chance of rain/snow Friday and a slight chance of snow Friday night.
