Some areas of California could see up to 24 inches of snow with the incoming storm.
National Weather Service meteorologists published a map on Wednesday showing which California cities were expecting more than a foot of snow with the late-season winter storm this weekend.More than 12 inches of snow are forecast for the high-elevation Sierra Nevada mountains this weekend, with possible locally higher amounts between 18 and 24 inches. Lower elevation areas are expecting rain.
'NWS meteorologist Katrina Hand told Newsweek that the biggest concern meteorologists had was people traveling up into the mountains.'It's late in the season, so people aren't checking forecasts and may not be aware of the snow,' she said, adding that the storm could cause slick roads and travel delays.The storm will arrive in western California on Friday night and then move inland. The heaviest precipitation is expected to hit on Saturday.
