A Pacific storm system will continue to bring low elevation rain and mountain snow to much of the West through today, with heavy mountain snow expected in the higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada. This system will also bring strong winds to the Intermountain West, Rockies, and Plains, which will create Critical fire weather conditions for the High Plains.
