As winter storms wind their way through the Sierra and northern Nevada, a number of chain controls have popped up on area roads.

With significant snowfall across northern Nevada and the Sierra, chain controls are in place on many area roads and through mountain passes.

A day after northern Nevada saw its first significant snowfall of the winter, chain controls remained in place on some area roads.

Anyone still looking for Christmas trees with the holiday just a couple days away can pick one up for free at Old Stone House Gift and Garden in south Reno tonight and tomorrow.

The motorcycle rider died on scene.
