The latest storms this weekend pushed the snowpack atop Donner Summit topping 624 inches since Oct. 1 at UC Berkeley’s Central Sierra Snow Lab.
The latest storms this weekend pushed the snowpack atop Donner Summit into fourth place on the list of snowiest seasons for the area, topping 624 inches since Oct. 1 at UC Berkeley’s Central Sierra Snow Lab, just a few miles from Maas’ house.
Same goes for Maas, whose husband has done almost nothing over the last two weeks besides plow their football field-length driveway along Towle Mountain Drive near the crest of Interstate 80.

In the northern Sierra, a half-dozen buildings, including airport hangars, collapsed in recent weeks near Nevada City, said Mary Eldridge, a Cal Fire spokeswoman. In South Lake Tahoe, two commercial buildings recently collapsed, along with the overhangs for a couple of gas stations. The roof of another flat-roofed warehouse in Tahoe City also recently gave way.
