california snow storm in June

The storm is still on track to nail us tonight and tomorrow. It’s spinning that red and orange you see in the picture above straight towards us with a classic winter-esque SouthWest wind.  A few of us are in position for an assault of the June Powder tomorrow morning and Monday.  Although, it’s only 45F in Truckee right now at 11:11pm on June 5th, 2011.  Stay tuned...
