A strong early-season storm hits Northern California Monday–Wednesday with rain, Sierra snow, and gusty winds — the earliest winter storm watch since 2012. A Pacific system will bring 1–2" of rain to the Valley, 6–15" of snow to the Sierra, and gusts over 50 mph in higher elevations. The weekend stays sunny and mild before the storm moves inland Monday afternoon. Showers linger into Wednesday before clearing. Temperatures remain in the 60s–70s, well below normal.
