It’s a day late, but Trout Underground Multinational World Corporate Headquarters is slowly being buried by a lot of wet, heavy, claustrophobic snow.
Caltrans Freeway camera at Abrams Lake, Mt. Shasta.
It’s the kind of snow that’s damned hard to shovel, being as it weighs only slightly less than straight water. Water weighs eight pounds per gallon, so you can imagine how much fun it is slinging a shovel full of this stuff.
Below Dunsmuir it’s raining instead of snowing, which spells spiking flows and muddied waters for the lower river.
In fact, the flows are skyrocketing downriver, and while the upper river isn’t experiencing the same kind of spike, it’s definitely being affected.
See that line approaching the vertical? That’s bad news for Upper Sacheads…
The forecast is for this to continue through the night and Wednesday. See you behind the snow shovel, Tom Chandler.

TC, sorry got stuck behind the hand plow, but I am glad it waited the day, so I could get back over the pass and home.I got one new present I don’t ever want to use but must carry in the truck. A set of tire chains.
