Slide Mountain where a gorgeous sunrise is getting underway with views of Washoe Lake.

Bridalveil Fall after rain and snow Tuesday morning at Yosemite National Park.

Waking up to snow at Yosemite National Park and Curry Village. Waiting for the sunrise and coffee brewing. Sunrise photos coming soon. Good Tuesday morning to you!

Road conditions should start to improve later this afternoon as the storm moves out of the region. Hats off to the big rig drivers making it through the snow and delivering our supplies! Safe travels everyone.

I could really use a vacation on a beach somewhere… Just a little break. 2-4 years. That’s all.

Pretty view of downtown Reno and our snowy mountains on Friday. Hope you are having a great day!

Waking up to fresh snow in Reno Friday morning, looking toward Damonte Ranch. Roads are slick with chain controls in the mountains. Snow showers continue today with a snowy evening commute likely. Post your snow photos here, how much did you get?

Storm clouds on mountains Thursday night! A winter weather advisory is up for Lake Tahoe and our valleys through Friday evening. Our valleys around Reno could see 1-3” of snow above 5,000’ on Friday. Cold temperatures in the 40s and 50s this weekend with partly sunny skies. Have a great night!

A nice day along the Truckee River in downtown Reno. Our next storm blows in on Friday with 6-12” of snow in the mountains, plan on chain controls. Our valleys could see light snow showers with 1-3” above 5,000’ along the foothills and for Virginia City. Have a nice day.

A brilliant sunset from Reno on Tuesday with the moon rising. Next full moon is this Friday and it’s the last supermoon of the year, appearing slightly bigger than usual. A storm moves in on Wednesday with strong winds and Sierra Mountain snow showers. Stay tuned and have a great night!

Good Tuesday morning to you. Fresh snow in the mountains with our latest storm! Chain controls are up along our mountain passes through the morning hours, with better travel conditions this afternoon. A stormy weather pattern is with us through the weekend. Have a great day!

Fresh snow on slide mountain!

Here’s your Monday sunrise on this Veterans Day as we honor our military veterans. Thank you for your service. 🇺🇸
