Blizzard Conditions, And Snow Of Up To 12 Feet Expected In California's Sierra Nevada

SODA SPRINGS, CALIFORNIA - MARCH 04: A person walks at Boreal Mountain Resort, currently shuttered due to the snowstorm, following a massive snowstorm in the Sierra Nevada mountains on March 04, 2024 in Soda Springs, California. The four-day storm delivered as much as 10 feet of snow and wind gusts up to 190 mph in the Sierra Nevada, eliminating a ‘snow drought’ and significantly boosting the snowpack. On average, the Sierra Nevada snowpack melt provides about 30 percent of California's crucial water supply in a state which only recovered from drought last year. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
