Thanks Dan, I can enjoy a blizzard without all the shoveling.

[@tahoemountainlife]

sorry mate.

[@Runco990]

Hopefully Newsom graciously allows you to use a woodburner over there. I'm on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe and the house is nice and warm. The snow blower is doing overtime today. Yeeehaaaa! But last year was much worse.

[@Weather_Nerd]

For now lol. Warmth even without power AND something to cook on 🙏

[@surroundedbyjaggoffs]

Living in Pennsylvania, I can’t even imagine 10 plus feet of snow much less from a single event!!! Incredible, good luck out there!

[@tahoemountainlife]

thank you!

[@harold17562]

I've been praying for another 38" in Lancaster County Pa with it's not going to happen

[@tahoesnowlion]

It's still beautiful. Thank you for Tahoe update. The 40 years of living in Tahoe, I shoveled my car out, now I dont necessary need to shovel it out because i have 3 garages! It's a trade off. Here at my house in RedHawk , Wingfield Springs, Sparks, we have 6 inches as of Saturday morning. Our wind started on Thursday, I had to tie down all patio furniture to our metal pergola which was still on the move. It is calm as of this writing. All snow plow dogs are delighted, my little Brussels/Carrin Terrier has gone out twice to play with a winter coat on and couldn't be happier. We will see what is still to come. Bella & Penny are happy girls, life is an adventure❤

[@tahoemountainlife]

All good. The dogs love the snow!

[@BreezyinTahoe]

People don’t realize how heavy “Sierra cement” snow is… and when you are already out to snow clear 3x a day without having a garage and also helping the neighbors out- it is more than okay to use a small one stage snow blower on your back deck. So excited that Tahoe is finally getting some snow- even in the form of a 3 day blizzard… so much better than rain on top of snow. Keep up the great work!

[@tahoemountainlife]

100% agree with you and thank you!

[@KuldaevaWatercolor]

The winds were very powerful here in Bay Area yesterday. I can’t imaging how strong it got in Tahoe ❄️

[@tahoemountainlife]

Felt like gusts over 50mph for sure last night

[@KuldaevaWatercolor]

@@tahoemountainlife it sounds intense! It must be so beautiful up there now. Enjoy the snow ✨

[@Weather_Nerd]

@@tahoemountainlifeMt. Danaher in Camino off 50 has a pws on top of their 100’ fire lookout tower (officially wind should be measured 33’ above ground but there are a lot of tall pines nearby) and they picked up a 71mph gust! My part of the upper foothills just below 4000’ did pretty good too, I picked up a couple around 55mph though the power briefly went down after one of them and the winds intensified so maybe I missed measuring something stronger lol. Few inches at this elevation so far, expecting 12-18” at least. You all stay warm and enjoy the fluffy top layer with these lower snow levels ;)

[@janetglover999]

All I can say is wow. 😜. Hunker down.

[@tahoemountainlife]

thanks Janet!

[@alaskabarb8089]

Oh boy, I can relate. Living in a winter wonderland is amazing! Cleaning up after a multi-day blizzard? Not so much. Unencumbered friends assume we’ve been out enjoying some of the winter sports that they have. Silly, silly friends... Back here on Planet Property Ownership, a typical storm day starts with barely-awake moi putting on boots and shoveling the dog “luge” run (in my nightgown) so our two mini dachshunds can take one look outside and decide to do their business indoors on a pad. I stumble into the kitchen to get coffee, before retreating under the blankets (with the dogs) for 20 minutes, while I look at the forecast news. I then dress in multiple layers, shovel for hours, coming inside to collapse, stuff whatever is available to eat into my pie hole, throw clothes in the dryer (after again clearing the dog run), hide under the blankets while having tea, then resume shoveling for as long as I can stand it before needing a side order of ibuprofen and a beer. No housework gets done, except maybe washing whatever dishes were used that day. Would I trade this life for some place without snow? Not in a million years.

[@catchison8671]

Hope your electricity stays on…🙏🏼 and thank you for sharing this great video of all that snow you have up there!😮👏🏼

[@lizdahl847]

They have generators up there so well prepared if they lose power😮

[@tahoemountainlife]

thanks mate

[@hlnbee]

I love Lake Tahoe but haven’t been there in years. We did encounter a blizzard going to our daughter’s wedding in NV decades ago. We are getting some snow and wind today.❄️

[@susanelizabeth2222]

Hey from down the hill in Pollock Pines. Only about 6 inches so far...Also I have a Prius with GREAT snow tires.❄❄ Power still on.

[@tahoemountainlife]

Hi there! The prius does well in snow and ice but only about 3-6 inches of it. Heres to the power staying on!

[@lawriefoster5587]

43 years ago I moved back to Philadelphia from Vermont because of snows like this!! I made my decision after it went to 30 below F real temperature one night. Beautiful to look at though.

[@wtfsalommy3250]

One day i might be with ya on that idea. Its the wind that pees me off 😂😂

[@indian_motorcycle_lady]

Bless your little heart 😂 ive been here 37 years, you are gonna need a bigger snow blower, perhaps two. ✌️

[@tahoemountainlife]

I keep trying to convince my wife to let me buy a honda

[@indian_motorcycle_lady]

@@tahoemountainlife you will not regret it!

[@michellegayle4657]

Thank you for sharing your experience. It's so helpful to see your story in real time. Much better than the news.

[@tahoemountainlife]

glad it is helpful

[@CruzCruz-nw7fi]

I’m being entranced by the snow blower 😵‍💫 😂

[@abracadabrapainting3373]

I moved north of you from Indiana and amazes me the elevational weather here in Cali. Im around 3k ft and have missed most of the heaviest snows

[@wtfsalommy3250]

Hehe😊

[@tahoemountainlife]

Yes the elevation makes a massive difference

[@Weather_Nerd]

The difference between even 3,000’ flat and 3300’ can be huge it’s wild sometimes what 150-200’ gain/loss can mean for snow! Depends on where in CA but the 80 and 50 corridors on the west slope, 10-15” depths usually happen 1-3 times per winter around 3000’ in my 30+ years of living in the upper foothills. Now, up near 3300-3500’ those numbers are closer to 16-24” Maybe more tonight into tomorrow, enjoy!

[@Westlake]

Hope your power stays on during the weekend and have sufficient fuel for the blower! The skiing will be great once the roads are plowed and safe! Last time at Tahoe was the late spring of 1980 :) No snow around here on the western end of Lake Ontario. Been a super mild winter. Stay safe & thanks for sharing!

[@lizdahl847]

Think Generators. They all have them in Tahoe😮

[@tahoemountainlife]

Thank you!

[@MrRunner10]

Wow! Can't believe she's shoveling, that's amazing

[@tahoemountainlife]

I know. She continues to surprise me.

[@Sonjaorleans]

Lots of women push snow

[@tahoemountainlife]

Totally agree with you but She just had Brain surgery 5 weeks ago.

[@raykrv6a]

I live in Maple Grove, MN and we have missed winter this year. It's 60F right now and supposed to hit 70F on Sunday. Last year we had huge amounts of snow and I bought an Ariens 28 inch with auto turn. It's a beast and gives my Toro single stage a break from trying to move the plow truck berm in the driveway. This year I've only used it once since we only got 6 inches of snow. That's right 6 inches. We have had a brown winter. No snow and new high temp records. Not sure what I think of that. Love the deck on your house. Great place to relax.

[@tahoemountainlife]

Hey there! I am from plymouth. I know that area well! Yea my parents have been telling me how warm it is. Crazy!

[@user-ds9gj3ym2o]

I’m a fellow neighbor in Upper Kingsbury and I just discovered your channel and subscribed. Watching your experience makes me feel not as alone. We are at the end of a quiet road. Thank you and prayers for your beautiful recovering wife. ❤

You have to admit, it’s beautiful!

[@tahoemountainlife]

100% agree

[@joeshmooo5327]

Bro, congrats on owning a home in tahoe after 10 years of travel. With the snow blower you want to take slices of the snow versus using it like a lawn mower. Once you have a indentation in the snow then just put a third of the auger in the fresh snow and slice it off. The blower will not bog down and you will not need to push as hard. Hope this makes sense.

[@tahoemountainlife]

Thanks for the tips!

[@csmith9189]

Thanks for the blizzard update! Tahoe is beautiful year round. I remember the fun snow days but at my age I enjoy the Tahoe summers more than the winters. I love watching your skill level and energy on the slopes.

[@tahoemountainlife]

THank you! We do love both seasons too! Winter is definitely takes more effort!

[@Sandra-cm1du]

You can only imagine what the Donner Party went through. When I lived in South Lake Tahoe and went through a blizzard like you are going through, our electricity went out for 18 hours. No fun!

[@tahoemountainlife]

I cannot imagine at all

[@mmjsstav]

Quite a storm! Especially early on in the video that snow looks really dense and heavy and moisture laden.

[@jqentertainment6966]

And here I am in Minnesota, enjoying a 70 degree day on March 2nd

[@vcatc2437]

Thank you for all the work you do to bring us the news. I love the area! Makes me homesick.

[@tahoemountainlife]

Our pleasure!

[@betsydaly-caffell6894]

Thanks for the video. I hope you stay warm and hunker down! News said there were 190 mph gusts last night. Yikes!!

[@tahoemountainlife]

Thank you! The 190mph was at palisades Tahoe at the highest peaks. I think we probably had 50-60mph gusts here.

[@Sonoma_Coast]

I would like to thank the PGE workers who have worked as fast as they can to restore our power. We've had 3 outages this Winter with the longest being just 3 hours out. We've had 3 storms with 40 mph winds. I've gotten to watch for the forecasts to keep my freezer almost empty so I would not lose much if we had a long outage.

[@tahoemountainlife]

Someone we haven't lost power yet but I very much agree regrading utility workers and snow plow drivers.

[@13576230]

I'm visiting my daughter in Tahoma. Was supposed to fly back to Florida today but can't get to Reno.

[@tahoemountainlife]

makes sense. It is crazy here! Hopefully Sunday or MOnday clears out for you.

[@Linda-sq2ti]

Bears are going to awfully confused , spring is on its way , and 12 ft of snow expected in the Sierras !? Wow , this will go down in history as the worst snowfall . Stay safe everyone , prayers are with you all . ❤

[@watchdogu.s.a.8973]

That is a lot... bordering on TOO MUCH snow! By the way, they weren't "calling for a blizzard warning". They ISSUED a blizzard warning.

[@tahoemountainlife]

almost too much

[@user-oh5yt6gf5d]

Official wind gust...so far...for this storm. Palisades Tahoe Summit = 167 MPH. Ward Mtn. Summit = 143 MPH. Mammoth Mtn. Summit = 96 MPH.

[@tahoemountainlife]

it there have been crazy gusts!

[@catlady4799]

You know their paws get freezing. If out to long.

[@tahoemountainlife]

100% we are only going for short 5-10 minute walks with this weather.

[@Freedom_and_Democracy]

I was there on Thursday as the storm started. I recoded some video. What stands out is the howling of the wind through the trees. You should include some video of that if you have good covered mics.

[@robynsanaturelover]

I'm further south in the Sierra foothills, but that wind really freaks me out. House literally shakes, tall oaks bend way too close, and that creepy, screaming sound for hours on end.. 😳 Izzy (lab) & I are officially tense. 😂

sorry for your misery.but, its doing wonders for the states water reserves.it seems all the resivours & lakes are starting the year off in really good shape.thats allways good.the mountains make wonderful water storage areas for a productive slow melt.

That happened last year? I live in southern Colorado we don’t even get that much snow. In the higher elevations maybe. Stay safe

As of now NWS Forcast for Kirkwood is 70” + still through Monday, they will be digging out half the day if not more on Monday ….. believe record is 150-154” for 7 day totals…

Wowza! It's so pretty though! Would a leaf blower for the deck and walkways work well when it's powdery?

[@tahoemountainlife]

Very Pretty! Possibly but we rarely have true powder here

[@SuziPoozi]

@@tahoemountainlife well that's a bummer, I I was hoping it would save you some time and energy.

[@dhrracer]

Sorry to say I only made it to 3:11 for two reasons. Why would you leave your outdoor furniture out on the deck in winter especially with a blizzard approaching? A good grain shovel would have been a better tool than a snow blower on a deck.

[@ideagirl]

Because they have no where else to store it. Don't judge! Geez. The snow is heavy. Too heavy to lift with a shovel. He might have a bad back. Again, don't judge. Please.

[@ideagirl]

I'm jealous. I love the snow. I grew up in Kansas and Colorado and Illinois. We always had snow on the ground all of winter. I lived in Texas for awhile. But now back in Illinois. We've had many winters with no snow on the ground. We've had snow. But it melts then gone. Wah! My sister and family lived in Sparks so I got to visit Tahoe once. So beautiful there. Especially Emerald cove...I forget. Is that what it's called? Emerald Bay? She even took me over to Truckee and Donner Park. Loved it all. What part of Tahoe do you live in? Anyway, I'm jealous of all the beautiful snow. But not the complications that go with it! And, how funny doggies romping in the snow! First time watching you. I subscribed! Thank you.

[@ideagirl]
