A winter storm advisory remains in affect until 10am today. But expect snow to be falling much of the day in the Lake Tahoe region. White stuff is likely to taper off as the afternoon progresses.

Slopes in the Sierra and at lake level have seen wind gusts between 35-55mph.

The warm temps mean snow totals will not be as high as first forecast.

Snow was sticking on the eastern side of Spooner Summit at about 9:30pm Tuesday. The snow seemed to stop after travelers went through Cave Rock. By morning a few inches had fallen at the lake overnight on the South Shore.

Sierra-at-Tahoe at 6am reported 6 inches of new snow. Squaw Valley says it has a couple inches at the base and up to 6 on the top of the mountain.

Expect slow going over mountain roads today. A rollover accident on Kingsbury Grade was reported this morning.

Snow is in the forecast for the rest of the week, with the sun returning on Saturday. Expect snow to heavier later in the day New Year’s Eve.
