3 FEET in 12hrs… Where are the plows ?!?!?

Lucky #13 atmospheric river pummels Mammoth Lakes . Cars stuck (myself included) everywhere, accidents, impassible roads and worst of all no town plows to be found ! Let’s get people dug out and the snow moved

Wow. Just wow. After 5 winters living in Finland, the snow has often made me despair... but this is next level insane. How you can even face it is beyond me.

True, but... the roads to the ski lifts are all plowed. (I also live in Mammoth.) It's been a brutal winter.

[@jamesbain1868]

@@lynnhall4981 But the ski mountains close until their ready to open. I'm sure the plows couldn't plow the roads, because there was stuck cars in the way.

[@loragunning5394]

I have to agree with James. This is a state of emergency at the state and federal level, way beyond the capabilities of a single township government to address. And while I fully understand the frustration, the fact remains that small local governments can only do so much. They don't have the tax base or tax income to stand prepared for a series of storms of this magnitude. And yeah, I'd be hot over the fact that the roads to the resorts were kept much better maintained than local residential roads, but let's face it: the local government gains a LOT more income from the resorts than they do from residents. Those resorts power the entire local economy, drive the entire local community. If you had limited resources and a huge base to service, tell me true, which would you service first and foremost? Local government must consider the needs of ALL, not just residents, which means devoting resources to keeping main arterial routes passable so that supplies (food, gas, etc) can be available to those that can make it to a place to resupply. Residents choose to live in a place they know may not be well resourced to service their needs in an emergency situation, keep that in mind. In short, your local government is doing the best that they can, even if you believe it is failing you. It's a totally unprecedented emergency situation, a little patience and understanding of the limits of small local governmental powers is called for, IMO.

I've been researching this more and I read that the years with the heaviest amount of snow in the Sierras had very snowy Aprils too. Sorry to say that.

Brings back memories of growing up in northeast wisconsin. We had few very heavy snow storms. Worse was: when the city plows pushed up huge berms on the sides of the streets. Even 4 wheel drive did not help once your car or truck was buried to the frame. Once it is hung up on the frame 4 wheel drive does not good. I / we always carried a coal shovel in our cars to dig our selves out. It took time but that shovel can get you out. Our wisconsin snows were nothing like even a normal winter in Mammoth lakes or sierra areas. This winter for the sierras is off the charts for heavy snow falls and accumulations. Warmer days and nights are coming very soon to the sierras and Mammoth Lakes area. Soon water pools, lakes, creeks and streams will be everywhere. Despite all this heavy snow and piles everywhere. Mammoth Lakes is a spectacular place to visit. Many vacationers just drive by on their way to or from Yosemite NP.

I used to live in Mammoth Lakes back in the day.I lived at Krystal Villa East, Crowley and Old Mammoth.Never saw anything quite like this tho.. sounds like you've got "The Mammoth Crud":( hope you feel better soon!💜 Hopefully you have a humidifier at home.Helps a lot with the dry air and all.

That snowblower is a beast, I'm sold lol

[@johnds6621]

WOW man You had a rough day. I recall in the 80's when the manufactures of snow throwers offered shoot extensions and I always wondered "who would need that"? now I know. We had maybe 2 inches of snow all season in NJ. We see green grass now you guys might by July. Take care and be safe.

[@susanmoore7229]

Don’t overdo! 😁 I’ve enjoyed your snow from afar 😍

[@indoors-outdoorshobbies]

Absolutely incredible footage! No need for a gym membership with all that snow to move. Hopefully the last big storm of the season. So sorry you are feeling poorly. Makes the situation that much harder to deal with and it's not something you can put off until you feel better. Hope you and yours get well soon. Best regards, Kevin

Prayers for you and the family and all in the community

I can see how this is getting really old. My father was very cranky by this time of the year. He didn't have anything close to this much snow! I would love to hear his stories, but he died in 2012. Hang in there. Let's hope it's worth it. Of course, we need a slow snow melt. Ugh.

13:20 It's hard to fathom why none of those roads have been plowed by the town yet. 🤔🤨

[@nickdagostino4197]

The town is obviously overwhelmed with a historic amount of snow, its impossible to plow roads when cars are stuck. I’m sure the highway department is working their ass off give them a break.

[@karenLynn3241]

Wow 😢 and I thought our record breaking 120 inches was bad!! You are awesome doing all that and sick 🤢 prayers for you and the family 🙏

[@bernieallison981]

My what a day. You are pretty amazing, and I hope you all get well. Great the grandparents were able to spend time with the family. Have a good rest, you deserve it. What an incredible year. I’m up in Canada just above the Canada/USA border on Hwy 97 - Washington State to the Okanagan Valley in Canada. We have been spared somewhat compared to you folks. Take Care down there. Be safe.

If the jet stream had been at our latitude….it would have been us getting the rain/snow….I live in Tonasket 😊

[@lynnmacleod5005]

It's almost like they are cloud seeding off the western coast line this winter. Where I am,,in Canada,,,we get your storm 2-3 days after you. We are around the Great Lakes.

[@noraleestone2859]

28:50 It's very pretty at night. 😍 I think this is the first time I've seen a night time clip. 😁 Thank you. 👍

[@ionizer24]

Putting a tarp on that snow blower would save you a bunch of grief. Nice it starts so easily and works well! A back saver for sure!

[@janherman1951]

Snowchains!!!!!!!

[@thomasedwards2754]

Good morning sir as a reference for me I would like to see what your front yard looks like after the snow canyons melts. I truly enjoy your video. Best video's from California snow canyons. Fantastic video sir.

[@returningtoearthtv8836]

Nice work. Nice neighboring. Almost seems like parking a rig closer to the epicenter of town with a snow shovel in it would be convenient and then use skins and skis and a sled to transport self and supplies back to your snowbound neighborhood.

[@wendyhall8834]

Oh my goodness looks dangerous the walls of snow!!! Crazy scary!!!

[@niclasbergman8418]

This is insane, as a Swede living in northern Sweden I've experienced my fair share of snow during the winter here, but this here is just outright batshit crazy. The fact that the town is even remotely functioning is a feat on its own.
