LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — Unseasonably cold conditions and the potential for more snow have led the National Weather Service to extend a winter weather advisory into early Friday morning.
The advisory, originally set to end on Thursday night, was extended overnight to 5 a.m. Friday.
That followed a day of mild snowfall in areas including Boggs Mountain, Cobb and Whispering Pines, and rain across the rest of the county, with rainfall amounts totaling about half an inch.
The forecast calls for snow above 2,000 feet, with additional snow accumulations of between 1 and 2 inches.
There are chances of snow after 11 a.m. on Friday, mixing with rain after 2 p.m. Conditions also are expected to be partly sunny, with wind gusts of more than 20 miles per hour.
Conditions are forecast to clear beginning on Saturday and continuing through Thursday, with daytime temperatures in the high 40s Saturday and Sunday, rising into the high 50s on Monday, and the 60s on Tuesday and Wednesday. By Thursday, daytime conditions are expected to reach the low 70s.
Temperatures dropped into the 30s on Thursday evening and overnight, and are expected to go lower still, into the high 20s, on Friday night.
On Saturday night, nighttime temperatures are again forecast to be in the 30s before rising into the 40s through mid week.
