The National Weather Service has issued a winter weather advisory for the Greater Lake Tahoe Area, effective from Wednesday morning until Thursday evening. Snow accumulations of 2 to 12 inches are expected, along with winds gusting up to 50 mph in the highest areas, creating challenging travel conditions. Drivers are urged to exercise caution, avoid unnecessary travel if possible, and prepare their vehicles with winter essentials. The advisory serves as a reminder of the risks associated with winter driving, which has led to numerous fatalities and injuries annually.
When you find yourself on snowy or freezing rain-slicked roads, your top priority should be safety. Slow down and exercise caution.
Travel could be very difficult due to snow accumulations between 2 to 6 inches below 7000 feet and 6 to 12 inches above 7000 feet.
If you become stranded, remain calm and ensure your vehicle is equipped with essential winter supplies, including a windshield scraper, jumper cables, flashlight, and food.
