California Storm Watch: Chain controls lifted on I-80, Highway 50

A Winter Storm Warning is in effect through Wednesday night for a strong system bringing rain and heavy snow to the region.

CALIFORNIA, USA — Northern California is still feeling winter conditions though spring officially started just over a week ago.

Scattered showers are expected through Wednesday once the main band of precipitation associated with the front moves east. Thunderstorms are a possibility most of the day Wednesday, mainly south of Marysville.

Snow will hold on through Wednesday with very heavy snow rates expected with this system.

Road conditions continue to change in the Sierra as crews work to keep the roads clear. Travel is not recommended through the Sierra on Wednesday.
