Snow in August? California's Sierra Braces for Rare Summertime System | KQED
Briefly

The Shasta area could see the most significant possible rainfall totals, but lighter amounts are expected further south, indicating variability in the storm's impact.
According to meteorologist Dalton Behringer, 'We're not looking at a deep soaker or anything. It's pretty much confined to through the day Friday, and if we get anything, it's going to be pretty light.'
Roger Goss emphasized that 'If this system were in the winter, it would definitely be a bigger rainmaker,' highlighting the atypical nature of the current rainfall expectations.
The weather service forecasts a cooldown followed by a return of sunshine and above-average temperatures by early next week, with inland areas potentially reaching triple digits.
