LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Rain is back in the forecast as a storm system arrives over Northern California in the middle of the week.

The system is anticipated to bring with it showers, isolated thunderstorms and snow in high elevations, the National Weather Service reported.

Along with the rain, the forecast calls for winds. Winds ranging up to 17 miles per hour with gusts of up to 24 miles per hour are forecast on Wednesday, but much lighter winds of up to 8 miles per hour are predicted for Thursday.
Temperatures both days are forecast for the low 60s, dropping into the high 40s at night.
From Friday through the weekend and into early next week, conditions are expected to clear, with warming, sunnier conditions and temperatures in the high 80s over the weekend and into the low 90s during daytime hours Monday and Tuesday, according to the forecast.
