The weather service said a Pacific storm system will move closer tonight “with widespread rain, high elevation snow and
gusty winds through Tuesday morning. There will be a chance of
thunderstorms that could bring heavy downpours and small hail Monday afternoon through Monday night. Drier conditions are
