LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Forecasters are predicting more rain and snow in higher elevations in Lake County and other areas of Northern California on Sunday.

The National Weather Service in Sacramento issued a special weather statement warning of moisture that will “continue to stream across the region for the remainder of the weekend.”

A weak storm front brought in moisture Saturday night, the agency reported.

A stronger low pressure system from the Eastern Pacific is expected to travel through Northern California throughout the day and into the night Sunday, bringing wind, moderate to heavy rain, and snow above 5,000 feet, the National Weather Service said.

Forecasters predict a 60 percent chance of rain Sunday, which will decrease early in the week. Precipitation is expected to return on Wednesday and possibly later in the week.
