Cold weather, snow possible this weekend in Tahoe region | TahoeDailyTribune.com

LAKE TAHOE — A wall of cold air is on its way down from Alaska, set to drop Tahoe-area temperatures for the weekend and possibly even deliver some high-elevation snow.

“This is a really strong low dropping out of Alaska,” said Jim Wallmann, a meteorologist from the National Weather Service office in Reno. “The last time something this cold happened this time of year was 10 years ago — it's really uncommon.”
