Tommo, we are finally being hit with some of the heaviest snow and precipitation in a long time. This is a "big dump" situation. I can see on the webcam, as the clouds lift, there is new snow now on the visible section of Whitney Portal Road.

NOAA weather forecasts is predicting a new and even heavier storm starting Saturday.

If you head up next week, you will find deep unconsolidated snow, and potential avalanche conditions in a few spots. Please be careful. Here's the Eastern Sierra Avalanche website.
