THE VERY LATEST FROM RENO NWS!!! 000 FXUS65 KREV 282152 AFDREV Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Reno NV 252 PM PDT Tue Mar 28 2023 .SYNOPSIS... A late winter storm will bring stronger winds especially for mountain tops, heavy Sierra snowfall, and valley rain or snow showers through tonight. Cold and showery conditions are likely to continue Wednesday, with reduced shower chances Thursday and Friday. It will remain cool into the weekend and beyond with additional chances for precipitation. && .SHORT TERM... Latest radar imagery reveals heavy precipitation spreading north to south as it accompanies a cold front passage associated with a mid- latitude cyclone circulating off the coast of Oregon and California this afternoon. Snowfall rates between 1-2" per hour are likely (>80% chance) through this evening in the Sierra from the Tahoe Basin north, with similar chances through early tomorrow morning for the Sierra in Mono County. Gusty winds, coupled with light snow character, will lead to periods of low visibility due to blowing snow in the Sierra through the evening. The southerly flow with this system will keep far western Nevada largely shadowed, with generally little to no accumulations expected outside of foothill locations. Rain showers are also evident generally along and east of US-95 this afternoon, with high- resolution guidance indicating these showers will intensify and continue to spread eastward tonight. Snow levels are expected to crash well below valley floors following the cold-frontal passage this afternoon, which may lead to travel difficulties for I-80 and US-50 east of US-95 as rain changes to snow after sunset. Through tomorrow morning, expect an additional 2-3 feet of snow along the Sierra crest, 6-12 inches in northeast California west of US-395, 12-18 inches along the Tahoe west shore, 6-12 inches along the Tahoe east shore, and 1-2 feet in the Eastern Sierra west of US-395. I am obviously very happy about this! KT-22 and hundreds of lifts across the Sierran Cordillera will need to be dug out laboriously by hand, while catastrophic snow loading on homes in mountain communities will not spare and will show absolutely NO MERCY. Ski Patrollers who maintain the various lifts and associated shacks will be stressed to well beyond their limits by the admittedly historic snows. This is no time to try and be a hero, but many will attempt the feat, and end up with a badly pulled and overstressed back. People who attempt to walk in the blowing snows will become disorientated and confused and succumb to the heavy snow. It will be very much like what happened in Buffalo NY communities during the November 2022 lake effect snows. They will simply get too cold then fall right over like Luke Skywalker did on Hoth and freeze to death. Strong Pacific storm windfields will pile on more snow, drifting many structures well beyond their engineered limits. The character of the snow is light and fluffy. Strong winds can and will readily pile that snow up. Destructive cornices will develop on many structures. Some will collapse, resulting in beloved roofalanches which will subsequently be documented on YouTube and ravenously enjoyed by yours truly. Roofalanche snow can weigh thousands of pounds. Try not to be there when it lets go. Snow will continue well into the week over the Sierra, bringing gladness to my heart. There will be hundreds of YouTube vids. I'll be in seventh heaven, happily watching every last one of them while blasting Peter Cetera and ELO songs at extremely high volume.

No, he was not singing about the snow specifically, but for me, the music really works well making me feel even more happy about all the snow and how it is being blown across that 8200' platform by those strong Sierran winds! It's all about how the music makes you FEEL and snow and emotions. I am SOOOOOOOO head over heels in LOVE with western ski resorts! That music, makes me feel even happier about it! THEY ARE GONNA GET PLASTERED WITH TWO MORE FEET OF SNOW! I am going back to full on crazy about weather, I even wub the FLOODS in California! You Tube is chock FULL of snow vids, flood vids in California!!! I have lost so many HOURS lost in wonder over all the deep deep snow in the Sierra and all the wonderful mudslides and the incredible flooding! They said that Lake Mead is gonna bring record flooding this spring! I want even MORE heavy torrential snows in the Sierra! We have got to make sure California has enough water this year. It's so DRY there! I never ever get enough Sierran snows! Enough, with me, is never ever enough! I'll be blasting Cetera songs while I feast on all the wonderful avalanches, roofalanches, mudslides and all the flooding, likely the WORST since we first settled the West!!! It helps to realize something about me: I worship snow, to the TOTAL EXCLUSION of everything else and everyone else! I dont give a flip about anything on earth except torrential snows! That's why I am pulling for a total cessation of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, (AMOC). I crave The Day After Tomorrow, FOR REAL! Something I forgot to mention here: I just wub the plight of the ski resorts and their BURIED chairlifts! Poor Tahoe and their KT-22 lift! Every time they get significant snow, like they are getting now, they have to dig out the KT-22 chairlift BY HAND, using Jebman shovels! I always get a good laugh out of this! There's gonna be a LOT of digging out this weekend, becuase they got that wintergrass festival comin up! They will likely need all five hands up on deck to clean the High Camp platform again! I wish I could go up there and dig out the 8200' level platform all by myself! I'd show them how to dig snow!

It is simply snowing hard, and blowing like crazy in Tahoe! The awesomeness unfolding particularly on the 8200' level platform is what you could refer to as My Precious! I am the Smeagle of snow, especially in the presence of extremely high altitude ski resorts and raging deadly blizzards with 199 mph gusts like those you will often find at the Sierra Crest! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Check out the second camera, the famed High Camp webcam! That snow is just swirling around on the platform! That beautiful drift is developing as high winds and incredible Pacific moisture conspire to bring out the very best in the Sierra! Visibilities have gone straight to snowy, blizzardy HELL! The temperature is so sweet, only 20 degrees! This song by Peter Cetera has got to be one of the BEST of all-time for snow jebwalking, or even just admiration and total, heartfelt WORSHIP of a Sierran blizzard in all of its beauty and awesomeness! Turn your speakers up to 979 decibels and let the music carry you away as you are transported to snowy Sierran Heaven by a sweet beautiful webcam!

I've said it before tonight BUT PALISADES IS GETTING POUNDED by snows right NOW!!!!! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Check out the Siberia cam and the High Camp cams!!!!!! Snow is POURING DOWN, and it is BLOWING AROUND! I WUB those western ski resorts so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so frackin' CRAZY about the deep snow at the high western ski resorts, that I would willingly sell my soul, in order to spend a MONTH at a place like Alta, Utah or especially MAMMOTH! There just is not enough snow, NEVER EVER enough snow in weathafella land, to ever sate my insane snow needs! I require dangerous avalanches, perilous roofalanches and those beautiful cornices that hang SIX FEET off roofs! I crave INTERLODGE, too! HERE IS A PRIME EXAMPLE of why I worship the Sierra mountain communities so damn much! This video is my very heart!

Fixed.

Did the Sierras get buried alive with snow in 97/98?

Dont look now, but Palisades is gonna get smashed AGAIN! You might want to keep a weather eye on these webcams. https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Snow is ALREADY blowing across the 8200' level platform!

Happy Birthday!!

Can You Dig It?!!!!!! This is definitely not to be missed, folks! THE GREAT DIG OUT AT PALISADES! I wub this ski resort so much! I am beside myself with sublime JOY, about all the deep snowpack Tahoe has to offer! https://blog.palisadestahoe.com/general/photo-gallery-the-great-dig-out-at-palisades/ Don't forget, they got ANOTHER 2-3 FEET of cold blower POW on the way starting late Monday, you heard that right! This upcoming Monday - EVEN MORE HEAVY POWDER SNOW for Palisades! The dig-out on KT-22 is truly iconic of this season! I wish I could go up there and show those folks how to dig that snow!

I LOVE being a delivery person so much! NEVER a dull moment! I'd LOVE to try delivery in Tahoe in January in a super Nino!

Palisades is getting good heavy snows once again! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams They might pick up 7 inches overnight! Dont look now but another significant COLD storm will demolish Palisades AGAIN next Monday- Thursday! Might dump 2-3 feet of fresh POW! Winter aint over with at Palisades! Not so fast!

I would never have imagined, that a storm could so completely fizzle out in California THIS winter. But, it did fizzle out. Wow, even the Sierras and the Rockies can get Lucy'd lmao. At least Palisades wont feel the urge to have FIVE MEN clear a small platform at the 8200' level. You could use a broom to clear that inch of fluff up there! Only nine more months to the next Sierra Winter!

This storm today has really let me down, all up and down the Sierran Cordillera. Now I feel like a fracking full-fledged debbie downer, and a brother to Ji besides. This winter sucks. Winter is ending record-early in the West, and flooding will be so bad, everything will end up washing into the Pacific or into Lake Mead. Millions of people and octillions of metric tons of mud will cascade down all of the western mountains, because winter is over, even above 13000 feet. I HATE BEING LET DOWN SO HARD. I really should have known all along. I need to find the ultimate Jump off the Cliff gif. Its a damned trainwreck, makes east Ohio look like frackin' Paradise!

They WILL beat it soon! Those aggregates are so big and fluffy! I think they are supposed to pick up maybe 3 FEET of fresh pow in the next few days! Poor palisades, getting drier and drier with time.

Forget Tahoe for now, they are barely gonna eke out 4 skinny inches of the pow. But Mammoth! The Village at Mammoth is getting hammered by powder snow right now! They are expecting 20 inches just today! https://www.mammothmountain.com/on-the-mountain/mammoth-webcam/the-village

I'm really bummed out, feelin like one hell of a Deb right now. South Cali is gonna get most of tomorrow's storm. Winter is nearly over with in the Sierra, and I have to make do with only 12 inches of new snow tomorrow at the 8200' level. Mammoth is gonna HOG nearly all of the latest Atmospheric River! I hope those snowhogs DROWN in all that spring runoff! The sun angle is getting more and more MURDEROUS, even in the famed Sierran Cordillera! Damn you to hell Mammoth and south! Maybe they'll all slide clear down Mammoth Mountain in one huge mudslide in the spring!

Its snowin' but GOOD in the Palisades today! https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Check out that drift forming on the 8200' level platform! Looks to be a foot high already! Get ready to have to DIG THAT SNOW again, Tahoe Crew! Its AMAZING how all that fresh snow just piles up and blows all around forming the most exquisite drifts!

Okay folks - Palisades is ALREADY seeing flurries! Snow was supposed to start late Sunday. Palisades always gets it first. https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams NO ONE ever cranes their neck tryin' to see snow falling at the Palisades! It just snows and snows and snows. I think they just read the weather models looking for a clear day to try to dig out, the way we search the models to find snow to fall here in the Mid Atlantic.

Tomorrow the snow comes back to South Lake Tahoe again. Palisades will get about 12 inches in the next few days over 7000 feet. They FINALLY managed to get the 8200' level platform cleaned of snow. That was ridiculously embarrassing, Tahoe. It took FIVE men, two of which used a snow blower AND a fracking skid-steer! It also took them TWO DAYS, LMAO!!! I am an old man, I could have done the deed with a Jebman shovel in about eighteen hours, all in one day! C'mon, Palisades crew! It was ONLY four feet of snow! Anyway, the storms will go easy on the Palisades this time around, only a foot of snow. Try not to get overworked, Tahoe crews. Its only twelve inches of snow, it should be light and fluffy this time. I know that heavy wet snow is so hard on your backs, Palisades crew. https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams Check out the webcams, by tomorrow afternoon snow should be flying. Ridgetop winds will be gusting to 75 mph. Nice, refreshing cool day for a jebwalk in the Sierran Cordillera!! TERRIFIC Bluebird Day at the Palisades! https://blog.palisadestahoe.com/conditions/march-17-awesome-snow-and-sunny-st-patricks-day-conditions-at-palisades/ That thirteenth pic is absolutely ICONIC!

Magnificent bluebird day on the Palisades slopes today with highs near 40 degrees! Most lifts are running now. They FINALLY managed to dig the 4 feet of wet snow off the 8200' level platform! It took FIVE fricken guys, one with a snow blower and the other wielding a skid steer, to get the snow shoveled! Geeze folks! I coulda done it in 18 hours with a Jebman Shovel, all by my lonesome! Don't you dare let an old man like myself show you how to shovel the snow at Palisades! Get with the Program, Tahoe! You got another storm headin' your way by Sunday! Two more feet of fresh pow! Don't make me come up there and school you about how to dig the snow!

Not sure if it is on Paramount + but ST Enterprise where they show the parallel universe, I loved the way Capt Archer runs his ship! I loved that stand up agonizer, it even had these cute little lights on the top! I should probably go live in Shanghai China for real. What was so fun and totally gratifying, was Doc Phlox all happy and contented as people got agonized, Sure I'm morbid, I love a good kickboxing match with Tong Po. I am likely quite the sick pup. This probably explains why I love avalanches so much, and the Donner Party thing back in the 1800s. Chilling, isnt it? And the Andes adventure in 1974. Don't forget my FAVORITE: The Everest Expedition in May 1996!!!!!!! I lovingly watched that at least 10,000 times! I really enjoyed watching people making poor decisions on the mountain in the blizzard! They stayed past 2pm, they paid the Price! I love Mount Everest, adored the Icefall, and loved that WIND and snow and the ALTITUDE! Man I wub this movie so much!

Palisades is sunny and 30 degrees, bluebird conditions for skiing. They have managed to get many of the lifts back in operation. They have at least four feet of hard packed wet now frozen snow on the platform at the 8200' level, they are using a kind of skid steer to remove, it is taking a LOOOOOOOOOO time! Some guy is jebmanning a shovel, you can see this in the webcam. Someone really needs to school these ski personnel on how to dig the snow! Come on guys, it aint all THAT heavy! They have a couple more good sunny days to dig snow and get all the lifts running and redevelop the terrain parks!

I have a BAD addiction to ST DS9. I binge and I binge. Never purchase a 12.4 inch 5G tablet. You will experience missing time, lol.

FINALLY, A MUCH-NEEDED BREAK in the Palisades, as ski personnel dig out from that latest storm. Very icy on the mountain from rain that fell as far up as 9000 feet. https://www.palisadestahoe.com/mountain-information/webcams The 8200' level platform looks like the high Arctic! Top of Siberian Express has snow up to the chair! Crews are gonna be digging it for quite a while! In one of their blog posts, top of the Emigrant lift has got snow up to the lift building itself and chairs are mired in new snow! Its amazing how much snow these people have been slammed by! They have seen 662 inches on the season!

Vastate you mentioned Paramount Plus earlier. There are a TON of Star Trek franchises shows on it, I get LOST in it! Also, BAR RESCUE! I LOVE that one!
