‘Miracle March’: California’s Sierra Nevada Pummeled by Feet of Snow
Snow has finally diminished a bit after California’s Sierra Nevada picked up several feet of snow, part of a “Miracle March” weather pattern helping to replenish vital, water-providing snowpack after a record-dry February.
Heavy snow began in the Sierra last Saturday and continued through Monday night leading to major travel headaches.
Monday night, a section of Interstate 80 westbound near the California-Nevada state line was closed due to multiple spinouts.
