Unlike last week's rain, this system will be much colder, bringing the snow level down to 3500 feet at times. This will affect travel on the I-5 corridor over the Grapevine, so be prepared for that if you plan to travel the next few days.
Daytime highs will be well below the normal upper 60s we see this time of year. Expect low 60s on Wednesday and upper 50s on Thursday and Friday.
