The storm that brought rain to the Central Valley and snow to the Sierra on Saturday will depart by Sunday, but more winter weather is expected in time for Christmas.
Fresno received 0.63 inches of rain by 4:30 p.m. Saturday. The storm was predicted to end Saturday night, said meteorologist Jim Dudley with the National Weather Service in Hanford.
“Since Oct. 1, Fresno has received 3.51 inches this year; normally Fresno receives 2.65. Last year around this same time Fresno had 3.19 inches of rainfall,” Dudley said.
Several inches of snow were recorded at Shaver Lake Marina and Badger Pass, he said.
The forecast Sunday is for cloudy weather in Shaver Lake and Fresno. Fresno is expected to reach a high of 53 and drop to a low of 37, while Shaver Lake’s high will be 44 and the low will be 37, Dudley said.
Shaver Lake residents can expect a white Christmas Eve and Christmas. There is an 80 percent chance that it will snow Christmas Eve.
“There could be snow in the mountains on Christmas Day,” Dudley said.
Fresno residents can expect to see a wet Christmas. There is a 60 percent chance of rain on Christmas Eve and a 40 percent chance of rain on Christmas Day. Temperatures on Christmas are expected to reach a high of 52 degrees, he said.

Rescuers battle the Arctic winter darkness and below-freezing temperatures to search for survivors on a remote archipelago.

One person was killed and nine others injured after an avalanche smashed into homes in Norway.
The deluge of snow tore houses from their foundations, turned over cars and buried a number of people under metres of snow, in the remote Arctic archipelago of Svalbard.
Rescuers searching through the icy debris had to contend with the winter darkness and below-freezing temperatures.
They dug at least one woman out from underneath the snow.
The avalanche left one man in his 40s dead. Of the nine hurt, two children and one adult are in a serious condition.
Government spokesman Tone Hertsberg said 10 houses were struck by the avalanche while dozens of others were evacuated as a precaution.
The deadly snow slide which started on Sukkertoppen mountain shortly after 11am on Saturday, came the day after a storm - reportedly the worst in 30 years - hit the area with winds of up to 60mph.
Between November and February, the region is in constant winter darkness and does not see the sun.
Svalbard, which has about 2,600 residents, is more than 500 miles from the Norwegian mainland and is known for its mountains and glaciers.
