[UPDATE 2:27 p.m.] Hail, Snow, and, of Course, Rain—Be Prepared Today
Snow is beginning to fall on Hwy 299 at Berry Summit.
The National Weather Service is also reporting, “The threat for hail showers will continue through this afternoon across coastal areas of Northwest California. Slow down before you encounter small hail if possible. Small hail can quickly collect on the road resulting in very slick conditions.”A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect through this evening. The Weather Service says there could be three to seven inches of snow accumulating at elevations above 3000 feet so be prepared if you plan to travel in mountainous areas.
If you have snow or hail, they’d like to ask you some questions (Go here to help them.) We’d also love to see your photos and read your observations in the comment section.

No snow sticking @ 3900′ between weaverville and hayfork.
Twas a weak storm so far in my area.
I was really hoping for greenhouse-busting, snowshoe-wearing foot-plus of snow.
How wonderful
Good thing the average person gets to keep a little bit extra of their wages, because there are going to be a helluva lot of equal zero pay workers going without the wages needed for heating their homes if 9 Dems don’t step up to the plate. Brrrrrrrrrr
Firefighters, postal workers, etc will need our help.
not accurate
Got details?

The postal act saved the postal workers. http://www.themailworks.com/2013/10/government-shutdown-postoffice/
Setting up emergency guard rails and a stop light at the Densmore construction site today.
As for Global Warming, its cold outside. just like they predicted it. The warm part of Global Warming is hiding deep down in the lowest ocean. That’s its safe space.
I am a convert to the Al Gore weather system. where a record cold is just Weather , but a record Heat Wave is ” Climate Change ”
So in other words Record Cold temperatures, is proof positive of Global Warming.
Why do people keep making every article into a Dems vs rep political argument. Give it a break people.
How is alerting people to the potential outreach for our friends, family and neighbors a political thing? When people don’t call their congress and demand for their antics to stop lest people freeze and starve to death, that’s when.
If not, the good news is, the parks will be not be manned, which provides for nice camping sites for all the homeless. Volunteer workers will man them, but who would want to volunteer their savings for filling up their gas tanks when the tax from the gas goes into the kitty for those who live in safe rooms while the rest of America turns into another desperate s***hole? Venezuela will look like child’s play.
Back to Fox News shak…. hey your people have the majority in both houses so good luck pinning it on the other side!
And this hardly feels like winter. There is no snow and not nearly enough rain. I really hope we can catch up and not have another drought year.

More than 21,000 national park staff members will be furloughed meaning critical resource management, including important scientific monitoring to protect endangered species, will not happen.
Jay Sekulow points out the political side you hoped to see.

Why are the Democrats responsible for the GOP’s incompetence?
Lol. Wtf are you talking about??
The Republicans control all branches of elected government and don’t need the Dems to do anything, look at the tax bill. But on keeping the government functioning the Republicans can’t get all to agree to it. That’s WTF formerly Matt is talking about.
It’s essentially the definition of incompetence, to be in charge of the government and not be able to keep it running.
Nevertheless, this has nothing to do with the snow report.
Dey tuk er jerbs!
And based upon these comments , again the masses are fooled into arguing and infighting allowing them to be blindly controlled while they think they know what is happening.
Yep. Divide and conquer. Keep us at each others throats while they do their card tricks.
