The Sierra is buried in snow after the most recent storm dumped several feet in some areas. Here's a look at some of the conditions residents are dealing with.
"The conditions are pretty serious. The entire Lake Tahoe area is completely buried," said Szabo.
Maxwell Szabo is bay area PR professional staying in Olympic Valley in Tahoe. He had to dig his car out of the snow every day this week. And then at 12:30 am..."The sheriff's office banged on the door. We woke up went to the door. They indicated we needed to shelter in place or evacuate," said Szabo."The condo right next door to ours had the windows blown out. 238 there was a trash can I saw this morning that had been tossed across the parking lot about 30 feet," said Szabo.Szabo says people had to shelter in place for the past 48 hours; his friend couldn't dig her car out to get anywhere.
Meanwhile, scientist Andrew Schwartz says we have disappointed with sierra snowfall for too long now because of the drought. But now... "I think it finally time to be very optimistic. It's time to be excited about this snow and that it has come in the way that it has and that there's more in the forecast," said Schwartz.
