With the snow, usually comes colder weather, wind, and sometimes white-out conditions. If you are driving in a snow storm, turn your headlamps on, and if a white-out occurs, please pull over to the side of the road, and leave your headlamps on. It will likely clear in a few minutes and you can continue. The roads have been remarkably clear, and Cal Trans is doing a great job with the plows. You will need 4WD with Mud-Snow Tires or chains and if you want to make it really an easy drive... bring the 4WD. The temperatures are in the 20's, and it seems mild outdoors.
