California mountains slammed by blizzard conditions, 10 feet of snow could fall across Sierra peaks

Snow will continue to fall into Wednesday as yet another system off the coast sustains a seemingly endless supply of Pacific moisture into California. The snow intensity will diminish during the day as the upper-level low moves directly overhead; however, as it does so, snow levels may drop below 1,000 feet. Officials are advising people to avoid travel in the Sierras. As much as 10 feet of snow could fall across the peaks of the Sierras through Saturday.
