Stuck in the Donner Pass? Feeling peckish yet? Thinking about a snack? #snow #CAwx #DonnerPass
Aliens landing? No, SNOW PLOW! #snowplow #DonnerPass
Looks like here's where all the "oops we need chains" is going on, a little before that other spot. #DonnerPass
"So, what do you do for fun on a Friday night?"
"Well, let's watch people stranded near Donner Pass!"
@MsMerope Oooh, look, first driver stuck on the side of the road. I suspect they are trying to put chains on. #DonnerPass
@MsMerope They put up a "chain check" at Donner Lake. #DonnerPass

Welfare checks on truckers
CHP pounding on the side of a truck trying to determine if the driver is okay or not. #DonnerPass #DonnerSummit #CAwx #snow

Great photo of Donner Pass in the LA Times this morning. The camper truck on the left is actually a Caltrans vehicle, they park them up there with food and a coffee maker for the snow plow operators. #DonnerPass #blizzard #snow #CAwx

Donner Pass in Northern California #donnerpass #Californiablizzard #cawx
No reports of cannibalism......this time.
"At one point, emergency personnel and tow trucks had a difficult time getting to motorists due to blizzard conditions. @CaltransDist3
is currently evaluating the roads and we will be working on recovering vehicles left on the freeway after motorists were transported to a safe location. There is no estimated time of reopening the freeway, so we suggest you stay home. Stay warm and don’t put yourself and your family in a dangerous situation." #DonnerPass #DonnerSummit #snow #traffic #CAwx #CHP #truckee
CHP Truckee: "(03/02/24 at 8:30am)
I-80 remains closed at the Nevada state line and Colfax. Last night, we had a mass amount of vehicles stuck over Donner Summit and it took several hours for emergency personnel and tow trucks to reach motorists."
Drivers are stuck on snow on the Donner Pass, yes THAT Donner....shall we start taking bets on when the cannibalism starts?
Looks like a chicken/egg problem on the I-80. Sanders are needed to get the road opened again, but there is too much traffic and they can't get in to sand the road so the road can reopen, but they need the sanders to reopen the road, but the sanders can't get through (ad infinitum). #DonnerPass #CAwx #snow #blizzard
Doner kebab is a lot better than Donner kebab, IMHO. #snow #DonnerPass #CAwx
