we were coming back into Kingman yesterday about 12:30 and began noticing all the W/B vehicles had snow and ice all over them. Then it started to be evident on the ground just past the wind farm. Then it started snowing lightly and wifey was glad to see snow once again!


then the snow fell hard, closed one lane (cause dam 2wd vehicles can't manage 6" of snow) and finally just a mile or two before the 68 cutoff - STOPPED! For 5 1/2 hours we hung out due to two rigs crashing ahead and heavy snow. Here i am in my JKUR that could have easily navigated the road, but NOOOOOOO, Wasted 1/4 tank keeping the engine on..

Ted, was that the 68 as in going to Golden Valley?

You call that a storm? This is a storm. 70-80 mph wind incoming. Just lost power

We got plenty of wind the past few storms. They had to shovel all the sand off PCH and back onto the beach. 😋

Thank you Sir and it was crazy - 80mph winds that shook the house.

Now is when the roofs collapse. So many homes up on the hill untouched, and no one is in them.
You think they will collapse from the rain mixed with snow? which might help melt the snow away because it’s a tropical rain?

I’m hoping the warm rain helps up here to get rid of the snow.

Sometimes you just need to find a tavern to hunker down at.
