KCRA 3 has declared Saturday in Northern California as an Impact Day due to the wet weather affecting outdoor events and travel in the Valley and Sierra regions. Rain showers were heaviest in the morning, with isolated thunderstorms expected in the afternoon. The foothills experienced significant rainfall, while some parts of the valley received nearly an inch of rain by 8 p.m. Snow levels dropped to 4,000 feet, with higher elevations in the Sierra expected to see 3 to 6 inches of snow.
As the weekend progresses, lingering showers are anticipated on Sunday, albeit not as numerous as on Saturday. Residents of Pollock Pines have varying reactions to the unexpected snowfall in spring. While some are ready for the cold weather to subside, others find the snow beautiful and refreshing, enjoying the change from their usual tropical climate. Notably, Lee Hall expressed frustration with the prolonged winter conditions, hoping for a return to warmer weather soon.
Despite the inconveniences caused by the weather, KCRA 3 provides real-time updates on traffic conditions, interactive radar tracking, and the latest forecasts through their app and social media channels.
