Mother Nature was wicked but our crews were resilient & never stopped by assisting & rescuing motorists, & clearing trees, power poles, debris & snow. Since Dec. 24, 1,350 Caltrans' employees have been working in 24-hour rotating shifts to maintain CA's highways in the Sierra.

The fresh powder isn't going anywhere.☃️Heavy snow expected to hit the Sierra today so please avoid traveling. Some Sierra communities do NOT have power & some gas stations do NOT have gas/ fuel so please wait & avoid traveling today. Don't crowd the plows. ONLY ESSENTIAL TRAVEL.

Don't get stuck!🥶Caltrans working around the clock to keep US-50, I-80 & other state highways open. ONLY ESSENTIAL TRAVEL. Motorists experiencing delays on US-50 & I-80 due to traffic congestion, which is slowing down our crews from plowing the highways. PLEASE AVOID TRAVELING!

City of South Lake Tahoe Tahoe Roads PLEASE AVOID SIERRA TRAVEL DURING THIS RECORD SNOWSTORM UNLESS IT IS ESSENTIAL.

Three most important words: 'Avoid Sierra travel.'

.kcranews viewer Joe Lococo sent me these photos from Nevada Beach looking toward the West Shore of Lake Tahoe. Looks like the mountains are covered with snow, but that’s ash from the wildfire smoke.

As part of the name change process for the mountain, the Squaw Creek Chairlift will also get a new name this winter. And we’re looking to the community to help us find the best name! Submit your ideas by 8/15. Voting on finalists will open 8/20: squawalpine.com/squaw-creek-ch…
