Anyone have beta on surfing tahoe? Figured all this wind blowing through would be a good time to tick off one of my surf "bucket list" items.
2016 snurfer ordered.
Something else to do with all this wind:
Frostbiting anyone?

Dear General Circulation: Thanks for making the biking get outrageous by sending us a few long, narrow corridors of enhanced column-integrated water vapor from all the way across the Pacific. Professor Reginald Newell would be super stoked to see such a lovely "atmospheric river", as he called these features. In the words of Tity Boi, he was "MF'N right". The ridge that will develop later in the week will be a nice parting gift.
Sincerely, Those Downstream From Typhoons

God bless this hero dirt we are about to receive...
Sending positive vibes to folks with homes near the Tallac fire (TahoeBC et al.).
As I drove to Reno at 6:30 a.m. this morning, I saw a huge wall of flames from the Washoe Valley fire. It was surreal.
As someone whose house is on a heavily wooded mountainside, these kinds of fires always make me nervous.
I saw what looked like a sail boat capsized off Carnelian Bay still tied to it's moaring. And a speed boat that was tied up on the rocks and getting hammered by the waves...all that $ and no sense.
The water wasn't too bad today. I had on a 5/4 + 5mm boots + 2mm gloves and I was TOASTY.

NOAA is only calling for 3-6" at pass level so i doubt that forecast is even close to accurate (unless it's a spot forecast above 8k feet).
copied from forecast discussion:
Light snow accumulations are possible at
Donner Pass on I80 and Echo Summit on Highway 50 tonight into
Monday
Mt. Rose NW chair webcam. Good on whoever this is.

Coming back on 89, there were 3" of slush on top of Henness pass, and one poor soul having his truck lifted out of the drainage canal. I thought someone might be out in it on rose, but only expected driving, not skiing!
