Hwy 101 Reopens!
Downed trees, power lines, and snow caused the initial problem but a number of vehicles stuck in the snow also needed to be cleared.

Thanks to Cal Trans, CHP, Mendo Sheriff and EVERYONE else that helped.
Especially Mother Nature …
Thanks for covering the storm Kim. Can I ask if this is confirmed that 101 is fully open thru Humboldt and Mendocino now, because the Caltrans road conditions site (roads.dot.ca.gov) still shows two closures due to snow near willits. Maybe they have not updated?
It is confirmed. I spoke directly to Myles and Caltrans removed the barriers showing closure on QuickMap. I would guess that Caltrans forgot to update that site.
Thank you again. Great photos of the storm and snowy roads in your articles.
Thank you. As bad as the storm was, I really enjoy days like this when I know I’m getting out information that is needed.
Yes! google traffic still showing closed. Chain Controls?
Thanks Kym!
No chain controls. Traffic is moving smoothly throughout Humboldt and Mendocino on 101.
will you please update status of 101 early tomorrow morning Thursday? alot of people staying in Ukiah ready to come home…
It’s open now.
