Late-season storm brings more snow to the Sierra Nevada

A late-season storm is bringing more snow in the Sierra Nevada region of California and Nevada Tuesday. The early morning temperature was 18 degrees.

The winter that wouldn't quit showed up again in the Sierra Nevada region of California and Nevada on Tuesday.

The fast-moving, blustery storm wasn't expected to last long, but it was enough to require chain controls on some trans-Sierra highways and add to staggering snowfall totals left by an exceptional series of winter storms.

"A blast back to some wintry weather today with wind and snowfall," the Mammoth Mountain ski resort wrote on its web page. The early morning temperature was just 18 degrees.

Like most Sierra resorts, Mammoth doesn't need anymore snow after recording 705 inches at its main lodge and 885 inches at its summit.

In the Lake Tahoe region, the Palisades Tahoe resort reported that early morning winds hit 100 mph before calming down.

Spring conditions are expected to return later in the week, the National Weather Service said.
