Winter Snows
A steady snow is falling on the Tahoe Basin and we are gearing up for what the weather reporters have been calling ”The Storm of the Decade”. Who knows if we’ll have storm intensity or “newscasting” intensity, but it’s better to be prepared, so that’s what we’re doing.
I found some information that I thought might be of special interest to you, whether you are among those who see the snowstorms as a bonus to your travel plans… or among those members who want to avoid being here in the thick of the snowfalls. Caltrans is always an important travel reference, and you can find the latest road conditions at there website: http://www.dot.ca.gov/cgi-bin/roads.cgi.
Preparedness goes beyond knowing the road status, however, so here are a smattering of other web references you may find helpful:
FEMA Winer Preparedness: http://www.fema.gov/hazard/winter/index.shtm
Tahoe Region Winter Storm Preparedness: http://www.placer.ca.gov/Departments/CEO/Emergency/CurrentEmergencyInfo/Emergency%20Preparedness%20and%20Emergency%20Background%20Information/Winter%20Storm%20Preparedness%20At%20Lake%20Tahoe.aspx
Current Severe Weather Condtions: http://www.wunderground.com/US/NV/002.html
Whether you like to VIEW or EXPERIENCE snowstorms, it’s sure that you’ll enjoy the brilliant white that adorns our entire area after the storms have passed. If you’d like to come up to see us this winter, for your Member Week or on Bonus Time, just give us a call: 1.800. 262.5077. We’d love to see you.
Safe and Happy Travels to You,
Kathleen
