What qualifies as a Winter Storm Warning? When a storm is forecasted to dump 6+ inches within a 12 hour period. That’s what we are looking at in Lake Tahoe this first week of October.
Winter Storm Warning @ Lake Tahoe, CA | Lake Level Snow with 12-18″ above 7,000’ | 100 mph winds
This storm is looking strong and somewhat pissed off. It has some of the characteristics of a standard mid-winter Gulf of Alaska storm and it’s gonna hit us like one. This will be the first cold storm of the season in Lake Tahoe and I think it has a lot of people fired up.
