Snow at lake level topped 1 inch before 8am today.

Snow started falling in South Lake Tahoe about 10pm Saturday.

More than an inch had accumulated by Sunday morning, with more coming down.

“Snow in the morning…then numerous snow showers in the afternoon. Snow accumulation up to 1 inch,” is what www.wunderground.com had to say. Apparently they need to revise those totals because at lake level it was more than an inch before 8am Sunday. “Snow  of 2 to 4 inches southeast of Lake Tahoe…with 4 to 6 inches southeast of Lake Tahoe above 7000 feet. Highs 31 to 41. West winds 10 to 15 mph.”

Chains or snow tires on 4-wheel drive vehicles were still required this morning. Check with Caltrans and NDOT or click on their icons at the top right corner of LakeTahoeNews.net to get current road conditions.

The sun is expected to return Monday — and maybe fall, too.
