Heavy rain and snow disrupt travel plans in Northern California

In Northern California, another storm system has brought heavy rain and snowfall as Thanksgiving approaches. On Monday, scattered showers began, with light to steady rain expected throughout the day, affecting roads and causing minor flooding in certain areas. Rain levels are anticipated to peak at around 0.10-0.25 inches, which may aid regions that missed precipitation previously. The Sierra Nevada is expected to receive several feet of snow, with travel disruptions noted particularly around Highway 50 due to potentially hazardous conditions. By Wednesday, skies are expected to clear significantly as high-pressure systems return, offering a dry Thanksgiving for the region, although preparations for safe travel remain essential.
