Over 25 states in the US had either a winter snow advisory or a thunder storm advisory this past weekend into Monday night. Record breaking temperatures and snow were encountered in many parts of the West Coast.
Reno got it’s share of snow Sunday evening into Monday night. The elegance of snow is beyond words but the aftermath is a venture, especially for a small city like Reno quite unprepared for the snow.
Reno in the snow is venturesome for many reasons:
1) There is no precautionary measures taken like usage of salt.
2) There is not enough equipment and man-power to plow the snow off the road.
3) The hilly landscape of Reno results in wide variations in snow accumulations.
4) The drivers in Reno are a bit inexperienced driving in the snow.
Our area received approximately 10 inches of snow. We are thankful for our 4 wheel drive, and our handy shovel we purchased last summer.
