The Perfect Storm... ?

From NOAA RE: The coming storm:

WAVES OF 2 TO 5 FEET WILL AFFECT THE NORTH SHORE OF LAKE TAHOE FROM SAND POINT TO DOLLAR POINT. THESE WAVES MAY PRODUCE MINOR EROSION OF BEACHES AND EFFECT PROPERTY NEAR THE LAKE SHORE.



But it could get blown out early:

....INTO THE SIERRA AROUND THIS TIME BRINGING UNBELIEVABLY STRONG WINDS. EXPECTING TO SEE SUSTAINED WINDS OVER THE SIERRA RIDGES AROUND 100 MPH WITH GUSTS SOMEWHERE AROUND 150 MPH. EVEN LOWER ELEVATIONS WILL SEE GUSTS OF 60 TO 80 MPH. THE HEAVIEST PORTION OF THE STORM MOVES INTO THE SIERRA MIDDAY FRIDAY BRINGING SNOW LEVELS DOWN AND PHENOMENAL SNOWFALL RATES.
