Number of Days Cleared: 11 in Tahoe Donner | 4 in OG | 6 in Boulders

Good Morning,

What A Wet Mess! Although we are seeing a lot of precipitation from the skies, this year’s weather is rain rather than snow.

Our crews will begin a partial clearing shift dark and early at 5 AM this morning. We are clearing a few inches up here in Tahoe Donner with Boulders, Downtown, and Old Greenwood on hold today.

The precipitation has delivered this year…now we need the temperatures to drop! It is currently snowing and radars show we are in for a dry few days starting at roughly 10 AM through to next Wednesday, February 12, 2025, with daytime highs being in the upper 30s and nighttime temps dropping below freezing, we can expect icy road conditions the next few days. More snowfall is possible by Thursday, February 13, 2025, followed by a dry period starting Saturday, February 15, 2025.

As we all know, the weather can be unpredictable, so make sure you are prepared for anywhere from 0”- 4,000” in the next 3 to 6 months!

TTUSD schools are on a two-hour delayed start.

Thinking of heading up here for the weekend? We cannot stress enough the need to plan ahead and check in with both CalTrans Road Conditions as well as CHP Truckee.

PLEASE MAKE EYE CONTACT with any operator before approaching or coming near the machine.

Please make sure you plan your travels accordingly and leave yourself enough time to get there slowly!

As of 7 AM as I’m posting this forecast the preciptiation with the next storm is moving inland, but snow has not reached the Tahoe Basin yet. We expect the snow to push in between 8-10 AM and to continue into Thursday night.

forecast radar

We could see snow showers linger into Friday morning and then some clearing into the afternoon, with some sun as well. Highs in the 30s for Thursday and then 30s for the lower elevations on Friday and 20s for the higher elevations. Strong ridgetop winds for Thursday increasing to 80-100+ mph by evening and then dropping through the day on Friday.

The latest model runs have increased the precipitation forecasts very slightly over the past 24 hours. There is decent agreement with a range of 1.6 – 2.6 inches forecast to fall west of the lake down the Sierra crest into the central Sierra, and up to 1.8 inches to the east side of the basin. The model average is around 2.15 inches near the crest this morning.
