A Sonoma County high school has been evacuated after some graffiti was found indicating a specific threat. Analy High School administrators evacuated all 1,100 students and sent them home around Noon after Sebastopol Police were called to investigate the threat. While police said there were no additional signs of a “credible or imminent threat” during the evacuation, the school administration decided to keep the school closed for the day. It will be back open Wednesday but with an increased police presence on the campus for the next several days.
More snow is likely in the foothills and passes as the region goes under a Winter Storm Warning from Wednesday through Saturday. Forecasters say the total snow accumulations for the 4-day stretch could be 3 to 5 feet or more above the 3500-foot level. But foothill locations above 2000 feet can expect between 8 inches and 2 feet. And they say it will be accompanied by some gusty winds, which means visibility could be affected. While the warning officially starts Wednesday afternoon, forecast tracks are showing the snow coming in Thursday afternoon.
