“Actually, we get a LOT more snow than Alaska. The Sierra of California has some of the highest snowfall totals in the entire U.S.A. Think Donner party. Generators, kerosene lamps and woodstoves help. In the last few decades haven’t been without power more than a few days at a time, but yes it is hard without FR!”
The last big storm in November left us here on the west slope of the Sierra without power for a week! This round we are only getting rain...so far!
It is now raining here at 6.000 feet on the eastern slopes, but still dumping snow just above me. The snow level will lower again tonight and Sunday.
