Steady rain coming over crest at 11:30 tonight. Seemed heavier on Truckee side so probably wrap around. Too bad it's going back to summer next week.

My kids will shed a tear. That place was becoming a tradition for us during our summer Tahoe summer stay. We tried to go there labor day weekend and it was closed- which was weird. Ended up at Izzy's. But IMO, BL > Izzy's.Quote:

I saw snow on Mt. Rose this morning (on the actual mountain, not sure about the resort). Heavenly showed some on its webcams too.
Yep Snow on the Tahoe mountain tops = Time for the new thread to begin.
Got a good amount of wrap around moisture here in the south shore, looks like the ground got a pretty decent soaking, predicting velcro out on the trails today :biggrin:

I guess my point was we're talking about storms for the new season, but hey, if that will jinx things as much as an August start date last year, by all means hold off.
Perhaps Vets is saying "Wait until we get first skiable snowfall in the Tahoe area (i.e. Carson Pass to Donner Pass) to start a new thread", but then again I could very well be putting words in his mouth...
...and the debate as to what officially starts the new season continues!
I did not see snow on Mount Rose today as I left the house at 6:30 am and it was too dark. By 4:30 pm when I returned home from Cracktown, the snow was gone off of Rose. That cannot count, especially with another indian summer now in the forecast next week. No new thread yet...
New thread? Really? The surf is running, it is super glassy and the sun returns tomorrow. Warm days are ahead of us, and as TahoeBC points out, the single track is primed. Why would we want a new thread.
Hooked a bunch of steelhead earlier this week. Got poured on during a wedding at Lovers Point in Monterrey on thursday. Surf was good in SC this afternoon. Solid week, time for some real snow.
RF started this thread last year when we had flurries on Labor Day weekend. The seasons are turning, it looks like we had a wee bit of snow today, so yes, the 12/13 Tahoe Thread is due!
No joke, but we found that bike! Well, a guy from Wattabike saw a kid riding it and called the police and the SLT police retreived it! YES!
now THAT^^^^^ is awesome!!! hopefully the cops got to beat him a bit
Awesome. And are cops aloud to beat kids in CA? I thought that was strictly a NY thing. Anyway, stoked to hear the bike was found
Where did everybody go? There's snow in the 5-day!
^^ We're trying to keep quiet about it after last year. I like BA's hesitant but slowly gaining confidence forecast of more than a foot at 7k feet.
There's also a new thread for 2012 / 13 if that's what you're wondering...
