Either folks weren't paying attention or those forecasters really suck out there. The Donner Pass - that's where they have folks for lunch, no? Every snowflake pictured @ the link.

190 MPH.....don't believe it...

It's not like they've never had a "monster" blizzard before. Happens every year.

190 Miles Per Hour wind gusts?

I am thinking the UK Daily Mail (or the local editor) means Kilometers Per Hour.

Most tornadoes do not even reach 190 mph.

Snow in the mountains in the winter.

These English people have no idea what a mountain is.

I have to give the Daily Mail credit for one thing. They don provide LOTS of excellent pictures and videos. WAY more than the US media does.

Mountain tops will get much higher wind gusts than sea level in some circumstances. Mt Washington, NH is famous for extreme wind with the weather station on top routinely getting wind gusts of over 100 mph and at times over 200mph

I used to work building vacation homes in the mountains of NC and we would often get winds in the winter approaching hurricane force. One site was on a high ridge at the narrow end of a valley that opened up wider in the north.

It was like a wind tunnel when the winter cold fronts came through. Nearby Grandfather Mth recorded a wind gust of 133 mph when I worked in the area. So a wind gust of 190 on a high peak in the Sierra Nevada in a strong storm off the Pacific ocean is credible to me.

Love the old truck driver. 10 feet of snow and 190 mile per hour winds. “Yeah, its a good storm. I’ve seen worse.”

Money quote from a guy who has lived there 40+ years”

“This is a pretty good storm,’ Frankland said. ‘It’s not record-breaking by any means, but it’s a good storm.’”

Winds at 190 mph? Your windshield would be getting hit with chickens, cows and left wing environmentalists.
