 (AXcess News) Reno - A third day of severe storms is expected in California after Gov. Schwarzenegger declared three counties emergencies. While the Sierra Nevada mountain range has seen as much as as five foot of snow, forecasters say another four feet could fall Sunday.
Yesterday, wind speeds of up to 165 mph were blowing westwardly out of the Sierra Nevada mountains near Lake Tahoe and with all of the heavy snowfall in Northern California's mountain range, avalanche warnings are in play.
Friday, the winter storm dropped nearly two inches of rain in Reno, a record amount, the National Weather Service says.
Sunday morning, interstate 80 from Sacramento to the Nevada border was shut down due to blizzard conditions.

 Has your mortgage company force placed flood insurance on your property? If you are like many people the federal flood zone insurance rate map in your area has changed and you are now in a 100 year flood plain. If this happens to you, the mortgage company is required by law to obtain flood insurance on the property . Mortgage placed flood insurance is almost always very expensive so make sure that you call us for a quote. Also, if you were not in a flood plain prior to the change we can likely grandfather you into the original flood zone and save you more money on your flood insurance. |
