here's a look at where we stand with the snowpack. the average it's now we're looking at issues with another storm headed our way later this week into the upcoming weekend. we are tracking what looks like an atmospheric river confidence is increasing that we will see

that thin ribbon of intense moisture aimed at california but with the next storm coming late in the week, it's going to tap into warm air. the snow level is going to be a lot higher meaning less areas are going to see snow and more potentially see heavy rain. we are watching significant sierra snowmelt is very possible late this week. we saw lots of heavy snow, but now warmer air about to move in later this week, it has the potential to melt a lot of that snow. combine that with heavy rain and the foothills, there is potential that we could see flooding on our larger rivers and also streams and creeks. we will take you to the snow forecast first. this is a warm storm, so we will not see as much snow as over the past weekend but 1-2 feet is possible from areas incline village to kirkwood. the big stories good to be heavy rain around the foothills.

like this. the moisture flowing in our direction, a storm dropping down from the north tapping into that. that's why we have the possibility of heavy rain coming our way with a level two storm with a two day lifespan. let's look at the lingering winter storm warning in the sierra. two relatively quiet wednesday and thursday but level 1 because there may be morning showers wednesday and late day rain on thursday ahead of the level two storm coming in friday and saturday producing significant rainfall and strong gusty winds. it could taper off showers oscar sunday and into monday. this is a wet and unsettled pattern of whether. >> residents and visitors to half moon bay are being advised to keep an eye out for a bold and brave mountain lion.
