Same storm... it'll only last a few minutes. Looks like there's more coming up the hill though.

The snow that sitting on the streets seemed to help curb the slickness, because last night the car was sliding alot.

Physics exemptions! They are in droves up here this week. I have several friends that are firemen here. Yesterday they had a record number of calls with SUV's going "offroad".

Yeah, the snow is flying sideways at my place. I-80 is closed at Truckee, I think. How is it at the south end of town, and CC? Nick, how is it up at Truckee?

South end seems to be not too bad. Moderate snow fall, but it certainly isn't sideways or anything like that.
