Give yourself extra time for your commute the next few days. Mountain travel is highly discouraged! ---------------- nice satellite loop at the source This storm will bring the total season snow to near or over 700" near Donner Pass- likely also will close many of the passes yet again. When storm gets to Utah, the Alta season snow will likely go over 800"- fortunately, since it is a cold system, flooding concerns are minimal for now |
