[Wunderground] Friday Night through the weekend:
Winds remain strong in the High Sierra with periods of stronger
winds surfacing in valley locations. Heavy Sierra snow with major travel impacts possible throughout the entire weekend. Storm totals will likely be measured in feet in the Sierra. Lower valleys may see a rain/snow mix Saturday, otherwise plan on light snow at all elevations into western Nevada with the worst travel conditions expected to be Friday and Saturday nights.
-----------
There is already a deep snowpack so avalanches are possibe above 6000'. With the high winds, visibility will also be limited. All the mountain passes, e.g., Donner, Ebbetts, Carson will be dangerous.
Tahoe is at 6200' |
