    Just got a weather alert saying that in the higher elevations of California there is expected 8 - 10 feet of snow with 100 mph winds. I have actually been through those conditions a couple of times in my youth and it is no joke.

      Feet?! That alone is bad enough but 100mph winds, too?!?! Holy shit. That’s sounds like some dangerous weather. I’ve seen high winds and snow and I’ve seen lots of snow (30" I think was the max in 1997) but never both.

      Hope you all stay safe out there.
