I-80 is currently closed over Donner Summit due to whiteout conditions. There's no immediate word on when the roadway will reopen.

Highway 395 is also closed from Gorge Road, just north of the city of Bishop, to the town of Bridgeport due to whiteout conditions and heavy snowfall.  

Chains or snow tires are currently required in both directions on I-80 all throughout Reno and Sparks and the Reno Police Department (RPD) is urging everybody to limit driving due to icy roads. 

RPD says wind, snow and ice are making road conditions hazardous. They urge consideration of this before any unnecessary trips. 

The City does have snow plows and sand trucks working on mitigating conditions. 

Chains or snow tires are also required on U.S. 395 in both directions from I-80 to the California border. 

A blizzard warning is also up for the western slopes of the Sierra from 11 a.m. Monday until 4 a.m. Wednesday with heavy snow, whiteout conditions and road closures possible in the mountains.

2 to 4' of snow is expected around Lake Tahoe with 4-6' of snow above 8,000'.

It will be very windy in the valleys with snow showers Monday afternoon through Tuesday morning.

Our valleys will see 1 to 6" of snow with some areas seeing 12" along the foothills and Carson Valley.

Plan on a snowy commute Monday evening and Tuesday morning.
