 THIS WEEKEND’S WEATHER MAKER

The storm that brought us all of the rain yesterday will lift to the Northeast tonight which will limit shower and thunderstorm chances tomorrow. However a storm system just off the coast of northern California will slowly move into the Great Basin which will increase shower and thunderstorms across the area for both Saturday and Sunday. With more rain and snow melt expected, the flooding risk may be on the increase heading into this weekend and next week. Stay tuned for more updates from the KBZK and KXLF STORMTracker weather team.
