This is an everyday concern during a normal Winter in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. Just posting this because so many from the East coast here on FR have slammed California thinking we have no weather.
"That's not a weather. THIS is a Weather!"
The inside the Beltway crowd believe the world stops just west of Dulles Intl AP. “Beyond the Pale” is a proper description for the attitude that our Rulers and their minions of Bureaucrat’s have for the Nation.
Further Info: 90% of the Calif counties vote Republican, 10% vote demdummy. 90% of the population live in 10% of the counties. State wide elections are over before they start.

We have weather in Michigan as well but you wouldn’t know it from the news.
Take the auto train
We got weather and then some. Yet another storm moving through today. So much snow in the mountains even skiers are hoping it will stop.
And rain, rain rain everywhere else.
If the snow keeps piling up in the Sierras a warm storm in the early spring will make the entire Central Valley look like New Orleans.
Should have stayed in B'ham. Rainy and mid 40's today, tomorrow, the day after that, yadda yadda yadda, until about mid June.
I hear what you are talking about with the Sierras. When I got my job up here in Bellingham I was supposed to check in on a Monday. I figured I would leave on Saturday to give myself two days to drive. On Thursday afternoon the weather started getting bad and the NWS was telling people to pick which side of the Sierras you wanted to be on for the next 5 days. I packed out my car and was on the road in an hour. It still took 5 hours to get from Reno to Auburn CA.
Just like everyone thinks the whole of NYS is a suburb of NYC.
That said, nobody makes that mistake about weather, although my brother and I did meet a girl out west one year who thought that Buffalo was snowy, even in the summer.
*sigh*
