quite hot yesterday, temps are going up (104 in fresno expected most of this week)

[Dodgergirl]

It's hot. I'm driving to the SFV on Saturday. Is it warm there? Do you know if the Santa Ana's are blowing? (As much as I complained about them, I do miss the warm wind)

[motherof4]

Wow thanks boy I'm going from hot to HOT HOT.

[motherof4]

We have some good gust today.Knocked over a table this morn.But kinda clam right now.

Clothes are optional http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/rolleyes2.gif

Or cut offs, shorts, tank tops, tube tops...

[Sandman]

It probably makes a lot of sense to be a nudist right now with the weather we are having. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/grin2.gif

[concerned]

I am one who does just fine in cold weather, but I don't do well in hot weather. That is why I have not appreciated summer since I graduated from high school.

[Sandman]

Concerned - You posted something I disagree with. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/grin2.gif I'm a summer person. I have Arthritis and my joints do not do so well in damp weather. I thrive in the summer time.

I'm glad we have 4 seasons. It makes me appreciate the summer time more. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/wink2.gif

[Dodgergirl]

I'm with you, Mat. I have a hard time when my hips and shoulders are 'frozen'. Not to mention the general discomfort. AND, the only way to heat my house is the wood stove...lots of chopping. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/freak.gif

[motherof4]

I have made it.Wow it sure is nice to be home.

[Sandman]

Hey Dodgergirl... I think Bass Lake Weather gives us a better idea of what we will get in our hood. We are a lot higher up then North Fork, but Bass Lake gets about what we get as far as snow and rain...

Jackets don,t sale well here, because we only get maybe 3 months to wear one, if that at all.At least it is cold enought to enjoy the Christmas Halidays.I would hate it if it was in the 70s at Christmas.We are going to get blasted with rain next week. GREAT! I even welcome that for a change* Lindabo

[Kahlua Kid]

I only owned one coat before moving here and that was for business trips to Chicago in the winter!

But now.. hmmm... I love the Burlington Coat Factory - I have to have one for light cool crisp nights - you know in the 50's/60's... and another for freezing your butt off mornings in the 20's/30's and one for mucking horse stalls, one for riding, another for going into town, another for lazing around the property, one for visiting friends, one for heading to the local bar and grill, one for going to the snow, one for going to work, one for the rain... hmmm.. what am I forgetting?

I've got a whole closet full of different weights, warmth, colors, styles - Just like my shoes - a woman has to have choices!

I always wanted one so the business bought me one for Christmas.

Kind of nice to show how well my pellet stove or cooler Keeps my home comfortable.

[Yosemite_Wolf]

the weather is 49 degrees... it was raining earlier.... must be so warm cos it was raining. but has anyone checked out the moon tonight? its straight up full and I went out at 1 am to let the dogs water the grasses a bit... and i was floored at the brightness! such a big change from the dark rainy evening we had.

[cak]

Whee! Lots of snow at 3400 feet! Big fat flakes!

[Sandman]

We only have patches of snow at my house. 4000 ft. here. Here is a shot from one of my home surveillance cameras...

[MtnEagle]

We live in Cedar Valley (a mile past Sky Ranch) - we saw people chaining up at our turnoff (Gateway Vacation Rentals - must be a story there!) and the actual chain control was at 4000 feet (near the middle Lewis Creek trailhead).

It didn't really get snowy until past Sugar Pine - this was around 1pm, I'd guess.

It's all rain now. And how!

[Sandman]

only rain here right now

[Dodgergirl]

The news tonite says snow levels should drop to 3,000 ft tonite. Guess that counts us in. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/eusa_dance.gif

Sierra Nevada from Yosemite to Kings Canyon-

... Winter Storm Warning remains in effect through 6 PM PST Saturday...

The National Weather Service in Hanford has continued a Winter Storm
Warning for the southern Sierra Nevada... from Yosemite to Kings
Canyon... through Saturday. Snow will fall heavily at times through
the period. Snow levels will be around 4000 feet tonight... then
lower to 3000 to 3500 feet by Friday afternoon. Snow will continue
through Friday night before diminishing to snow showers Saturday
afternoon.

Total snow accumulations of 2 to 4 feet are possible over the
Sierra summits. Additionally... this storm will produce strong
southwest winds of 30 to 50 mph over the higher terrain with
significant blowing and drifting of snow and local whiteout
conditions.

Persons with travel plans into the Sierra Nevada should expect
severe winter weather conditions through at least Saturday morning.
Anticipate Road closures and long delays. Roads that remain open
will require tire chains

[Raider]

I don't want to put chains on on New Yers Eve, http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/no.gif and it's to damn cold for the Jeep. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/sad420.gif

It was getting a bit slippery around the 223/420 corner. It's snowing very lightly.

Just left oakyhurst and it is coooold http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/icicles.gif lots of potholes on 41 near the brokenbit.

[Raider]

Finally snow ! http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/eusa_dance.gif

[TOT]

http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/rolleyes2.gif i wanted snow thursday, friday, saturday or sunday. why today?

i was supposed to be at work at 7. that didn't happen.

got up, there was no snow. was leaving for work about an hour later, was asked if i'd checked the weather first. said no, and that i could guarantee it didn't snow at that low. opened the door and took back my guarantee immediately.

thought i could make it to work ... it was interesting, to say the least. stopped at DodgerGirl's (sweetest person ever) house for a bit, until it got lighter and a few more people had gone by.

i'd like to place am order for 5 inches of snow at my house in 4 weeks on a friday night, please.

[moonchild]

What is your elevation tot? http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/snowflake2.gif

[Sandman]

Snow!!!!

I had a fun evening with Mibrew and Treasure Chest at their home last night... I told them it would probably snow at my house. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/stretch.gif

No snow in town?

[TOT]

between 3000 and 3500 i believe. lower than teaford, higher than YHS http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/stretch.gif

[Sandman]

I'm getting ready to make the drive down the hill. Go Jeep!

[Raider]

How deep has it gotten so far ?

[MtnEagle]

I'm at 3200 ft right behind the Mountain House on 222 and 41. It's been snowing on and off all morning, in fact it's snowing right now, but nothing has stuck yet at my elevation. That might change tonight and tomorrow, because it is supposed to get e little colder by tomorrow (~3-4 degrees cooler).

School will be fun tomorrow! http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol420.gif

[Yosemite_Wolf]

Raider... love your jeep with the smiley face driving!! cool.

[Sandman]

How deep has my Jeep been? I was a few feet deep in a mine shaft once. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol.gif As far as snow goes, I have been in a few feet last year and got stuck... had my friend in his Wrangler pull me out. With better tires, I could have handled it. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/stretch.gif

As far as the depth of the snow here... I'll show you a photo... not too deep, but it's starting to come down thick now.

[TOT]

are they keeping the roads plowed?

[Dodgergirl]

http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol420.gif
yes, just posted that in the 'shoutbox'
they're going by about every half hour.

[Sandman]

Here is a pic of the neighborhood from my deck...

[Sandman]

..and this is the Sierra National Forest behind my house...

[Sandman]

...and this is also from my deck looking towards the side of my home.

The snow is coming down consistantly, but the roads were well plowed when I just drove up from town. It was snowing below the Forks turnoff. The 420 corner was starting to get a but slushy, however.

Be careful TOT!!! Leave work early if you can... it's going to get worse in a few hours. Call me if you need a ride or a pull out. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/wink420.gif

[Dodgergirl]

Mat, that is an incredible picture. (The one from your deck)
Do you know how early they start plowing? Gotta leave here by 6 tomorrow morning.

[Sandman]

6AM is going to be rough. Even if they plow, it's going to be very slippery. If you must leave that early, please be so careful.

They start plowing at 7 or 8 I think... but I could be wrong on that one. If it snows a lot tonight, the plows will only do so much. Subarus do well, though. Just drive as slow as you can.

[shansard]

Pretty pictures!!!

No snow here, but I live at a lower elevation.

[Sandman]

BTW: Have you seen Kato? He got out... having fun in the snow, I guess. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/rolleyes2.gif

[Sandman]

...just spotted Kato running laps in the snow in the forest behind my house. He loves the snow. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/yes.gif It's good that the old boy can get out and enjoy it. I guess he is back to 100% now after being sick.

[Dodgergirl]

Gotta open the school at 6:30. If it's really bad I'll call and have someone else do it, but after almost two weeks off, I don't want to call in.

I'm glad Kato is feeling better and out having fun.

[Sandman]

I know it's kind of hard to call in after having a vacation, but let your safety come first. If you feel it is unsafe in the morning, don't do it. Do you have a cell phone? That would come in handy if you do get stuck... or tell Jack you'll call him from work once you arrive. Then he'll know to come looking if you don't call.

Be safe and take the morning off if you see a lot of snow out there... ...and if they don't plow... don't even try it. You will not make it around the 420/223 corner if they don't plow.

[Raider]

I think it's suppose to end later tonight. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/confused2.gif

[Sandman]

I hear it is snowing at John West Road right now... not sticking yet. That's 3000 ft.

http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol.gif I just looked at my camera and see Kato taking a break.. laying next to my Jeep. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/stretch.gif

[TOT]

that's why i was so determined this morning. when i was sitting in the car i was realizing all the stuff that had to get done so we could open...

definitely put chains on if it looks anything like this morning. watch out for others who don't have chains.

the didn't plow that early today!

What elevation are we at?

[Sandman]

about 4000 ft. here DG.

[Sandman]

This is probably most accurate for us DG...

from this link (http://www.wunderground.com/cgi-bin/findweather/getForecast?hourly=1&query=93604&yday=3&weekday=Tuesday)

Today...

[Sandman]

and tomorrow...

So it looks like it might be snowing at 6AM according to wunderground.com for our area. It may rain and wash away all of the existing snow, however.

It will be icy!

[Sandman]

Yup, he loves the snow. He has a nice fur coat to keep him warm. He gets too hot in the house, in fact. He will go downstairs and lay on the linoleum when it gets too hot in the house for him. Then he'll come upstairs and beg me to let him out.

I have seen him sleeping in the snow in the middle of the night outside. I open the door to let him in and he runs the other direction. I look outside 10 minutes later and he is back sleeping in his snow hole. He loves to roll around in the snow, also. The black from his coat is a great contrast to the snow.

He is inside right now... I think he got it all out of his system running around yesterday.

The cat, on the other hand, doesn't even like to go outside to go to the bathroom when it's snowing. I have to toss her *** outside every morning to prevent an accident. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol.gif

also, check here http://oakhurstforums.com/roads.shtml to get the road info from this website! http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/wink420.gif

[Lotek]

Thanks Raider & Sandman. I'd already checked the CalTrans site, but was hoping for more current info from a real person who had recently driven between Oakhurst & CG. We had a huge downpour here not too long ago & it's brrrrrrr cold, so I wanted to know if snow fell on Deadwood or if the road iced. No matter, I'll make the trip another day. Thanks anyway.

[Sandman]

I just started a new Road Conditions thread. Hopefully that will encourage people to post after they drive to tell us how the roads are...

[Raider]

What happened to this Big storm that we are suppose to have today ? It snowed a little early this morning, but nothing since. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/confused2.gif

[shansard]

It is pouring rain in Oakhurst and OES and OCI are closed.

[Mibrew]

The storm was breaking up last night, we got hit early this morning, rain & winds, pretty calm now, we'll see more late tonight or early Sat morning...

I think the PGE workers should be commended for getting our power back on in such horrendous conditions....the wind gusts were something else and with the driving rain and wind I sure would not have been wanting to mess with electrical stuff out there.....and in the dark too....altho we grumble when we don't have power....Be glad you don't have to be the one out there fixing it http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/lol420.gif

Snowing at my house (bout 3300 elevation)at 1:30pm. Guess it will be a while before we get sunny since Brew's post is early afternoon and the mountains usually keep the storm from moving too fast thru our area.

This is the worst yet for the season.

My cousin is a nurse there, works in the Discovery department/section, but she normally works in the day time, so you probably never see her.

the news just said they were having golfball sized hail in Fresno. The weather system should hit Oakhurst at 4:50 or so.......that is, if you believe the news. http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/wink420.gif

Watch it roll in by work yesterday around 4:00 p.m. in Fresno (41 and Friant) and it was following the 41 exactly to the North -so thought, I'll try to out run it and won't have to drive in the storm home later... so left at the worst possible time - was caught in the hail storm - I parked under the underpass (1/2 in, 1/2 out cause others were already there! Then decided, well, what's the difference - my car was being pelted anyways in the rear so took off in it (about 30 miles an hour if that) and did outrun it at the Millerton Turn-off - smooth sailing home...

Then 1/2 hour later after getting home it hit here...

Here are some of my shots from last night:

Oh YM, S.F. is my most very favorite city in the world. I would take ANY weather if I could live there. Are you from that area? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Oh no, in fact I hate it. I like San Fran/Bay Area in small doses.. I am an East Coast girl... and I like my beaches warm thank you.

Hi Summer,

west coast (http://www.gibbleguts.com/images/westcoast.gif) cute weather cartoon

Sure is starting to feel like Spring? Sierra Summit is reopening and plans to be open over Memorial day weekend. Also had a few friends take snow mobiles up Beasore somewhere. Their excited claim was 12 feet of new snow. Even with accepting the probable exaggeration of their story.....8 feet or even 6 feet of new snow this late in the year is amazing. We haven't had snow on Father's day in while......

The Bay Area will be in the mid 80's for the weekend http://oakhurstforums.com/icon/stretch.gif but I'll be in Oakhurst, should be nice there too...
