[Homebrewers] Snow brew day weather

[Steve Seeley]

It sounds like we can just sneak through the heavy storms.

SHOWERS SHOULD DIMINISH FRIDAY NIGHT WITH A WEAK SHORTWAVE 
 RIDGE AHEAD OF THE NEXT SYSTEM FOR POSSIBLE A BRIEF BREAK IN 
 PRECIPITATION ... the next system ON SATURDAY WHICH WILL BRING PRECIPITATION INTO THE AREA BEGINNING IN THE MORNING AND BECOME HEAVIER IN THE AFTERNOON AND  EVENING.

Jeff is at 4005.5 feet

SNOW LEVELS START OUT AROUND 4000 TO 5000 FEET ON SATURDAY BUT WILL LOWER TO AROUND 3000 TO 4000 FEET ON SUNDAY.

... Steve

This will be a snow brew in more ways than one.  Here's a bit from the NWS forecast discussion describing three storms on the way, with the strongest timed for Saturday: 
(http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/forecasts/display_special_product_versions.php?sid=sto&pil=afd):
 
THERE CURRENTLY IS A SNOW ADVISORY FOR ALL OF OUR MOUNTAINS, THAT STARTS AT 
NOON AND LASTS UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT (FRIDAY)...AS MOISTURE COMES IN AND SNOW 
LEVELS DROP TO BETWEEN 4000 AND 5000 FEET MSL.  AS THAT FIRST IMPULSE 
GOES THROUGH...THERE WON`T BE SO MUCH AS A BREAK IN THE PRECIPITATION 
AS THERE WILL BE A LESSENING OF THE RATES...AS THE NEXT SYSTEM STARTS 
BEARING DOWN ON THE REGION. WILL FRESHEN THE ADVISORY BEFORE 14Z, BUT 
WILL HOLD OFF IN PUTTING OUT ANY OTHER ADVISORIES OR WARNINGS FOR THE 
FRIDAY SYSTEM TO AVOID CONFUSION.  SNOW TOTALS WITH THAT ONE COULD BE 
EVEN HIGHER AND THE SNOW LEVELS WILL DROP TO 3000 TO 4000 FEET. SHORT 
WAVE RIDGING DECREASE SHOWERS TO CHANCES IN MOST PLACES FRIDAY NIGHT. 
ANOTHER...WHAT IS TUNING UP TO BE THE STRONGEST YET...STORM IS POISED 
TO STRIKE DURING THE DAY SATURDAY, BRINGING HEAVY RAIN AND SNOW, WITH 
VERY HIGH WINDS.  THIS WILL MAKE FOR A VERY INCLEMENT WEEKEND, BEFORE 
IT EXITS EAST.  THEN...HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC 
SUNDAY NIGHT WILL DECREASE SHOWERS TO CHANCE CATEGORY AGAIN, WITH DRY 
AND WARMER WEATHER ON TAP FOR AT LEAST THE 1ST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.
 
Dress warm and bring your chains if you don't have 4WD...
