With a cold front moving through the Bay Area, forecasters predicted showers for the area Monday, with isolated thunderstorms and hail possible. Meanwhile, a Winter Weather Advisory was issued for snow on Bay Area mountaintops.
The National Weather Service says temperatures Monday will be exceptionally cool, bringing the snow level down to as low as 1,500 feet later Monday night.
A
Winter Weather Advisory was issued for mountains of the San Francisco and Monterey Bay areas until 10 p.m. Monday evening.
A dusting of snow was reported late Sunday on Mount Hamilton, near San Jose.
In the Sierra Nevada, snow made for good skiing, but tough driving. Boreal atop Donner Summit reported ten inches of new snow, saying it allowed the opening of more terrain.
Forecasters said another one to two feet of snow could fall in the northern Sierra through Tuesday afternoon.
