The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a winter storm watch for the Fresno area from Sunday to Tuesday. This warning comes as a result of an incoming weather system that is expected to bring heavy snowfall and potentially hazardous conditions to the region. Residents are advised to prepare for the storm by stocking up on essential supplies and staying informed about weather updates.
The NWS is predicting significant snow accumulations in the Sierra Nevada mountains, with the potential for travel disruptions and dangerous driving conditions on mountain highways. In addition to snow, the storm could also bring strong winds and low temperatures, increasing the risk of power outages and frostbite.
Local authorities are urging residents to take precautions to stay safe during the storm, including avoiding unnecessary travel and staying indoors when possible. They also recommend checking in on elderly or vulnerable neighbors to ensure their well-being. The winter storm watch serves as a reminder for residents to be vigilant and prepared for severe weather events during the winter months.
