Sierra Windstorm coming: “A once in several years” event
“This will be a once in several years event that may hit the Sierra pretty hard,” according to the National Weather Service in Sacramento. “The last such Windstorm (of a similar magnitude) occurred in late 2011. The impacts might be relatively severe, with downed trees and power outages likely along the Sierra. Treacherous conditions are also expected to outdoor recreation, including the ski resorts. Wind gusts of 80 and above are possible in the higher terrain.”
