Breezy?

I keep an eye on the Lake Tahoe weather. Not because we live there or are planning to visit soon. The lake is just an icon in this part of California and we have lots of great memories from times past at the lake. So when I heard that we were going to get some rain tomorrow I decided to check the Tahoe weather.

Tuesday Night

Windy with snow. Lows 18 to 28. Southwest winds 20 to 30 mph decreasing to 10 to 20 mph after midnight. Gusts up to 45 mph. Ridge gusts up to 100 mph decreasing to 55 mph after midnight.

Yikes!
