CALIFORNIA, USA — A winter storm that dumped low-elevation snow, brought gusty winds and dropped rain in the valley continues to impact the northern California Saturday.
Officials with the National Park Service have closed Yosemite National Park through Mar. 1 due to severe winter conditions. Only administrative traffic is being allowed on park roads.
Dangerous travel and avalanche conditions will continue for much of the weekend. Snow tapers a little later in the day Saturday in the Sierra with a small window for better travel by Saturday afternoon through early Sunday.
Two more systems will keep rain and snow in the forecast.
The next round of active weather arrives Sunday afternoon through early Monday.
