Just started raining / SNOWING ❄️here in the Sierras

[FirstLight]

Temperatures dropping fast though. Ha! I literally looked at the weather channel on my phone and it says it's 41, but I'm looking outside and I see flurries!

The radar looks pretty thick too for the next couple hours they said a few inches ....holy shit this is our first "real" snow!

1. The wind has been blowing like a freight train since Dawn

I'm sure the gusts are at least 50 over The ridges if not higher made my windows rattle and the house shook a bit!

Big storms like this when they blow in or always so exciting! By March I'm totally fucking over it but the first one is always fun 🤪

6. You and Tom Hanks

I grew up on the east coast, but I've lived here since 1969. It's my home.

8. From what I see..

Placerville is getting hit pretty hard but the rain clouds stretch from there south to at least Angels Camp, and north towards Truckee. I also see traffic having problems going over I-80 towards Reno.

Good luck
