STRANDED on Donner Summit in a Massive Winter Storm!
On December 14th, 2024, a significant winter storm brought travel nightmares to Interstate 80 over Donner Summit in California. Motorists became stranded for hours, waiting for the highway to reopen due to an accident on the eastbound lanes. In typical fashion, what do you do to bide the time? Walk on the highway! I talked with one of the many spectacular CalTrans workers in District 3 about some of her ideas for the future, along with other motorists waiting for the traffic to clear. Enjoy!

Chasing a MASSIVE Atmospheric River! Interstate 5 Shutdown, Trucks Stranded Everywhere!
Переглядів 33 тис.21 день тому
A massive atmospheric river impacted Northern California, bringing heavy snow to two towns, Weed and Mount Shasta. The conditions became so treacherous that Interstate 5, the main artery for truck travel on the West Coast, was closed from the Oregon border to Redding, CA. Trucks became stranded everywhere, and roads became deserted outside a few vehicles and emergency responders. #naturaldisast...

      An atmospheric river (AR) is a narrow corridor or filament of concentrated moisture in the atmosphere. So yes, snow is moisture now too... LOL! Took me about 30 seconds to track down that particular bit of information. "I love the uneducated" Donald J Trump

This is the first year the new term atmospheric river is used for anything other than rain and furthermore it has only been used for the last 5 years. Made up words to keep simpletons like you busy on their high horses thinking they're correct, hopefully you never fall from said horse it will be a bumpy ride down.

Can't tell me a thing about what's a big deal and what's not! I know more than you concerning the weather genre! No one is making a big deal about anything, and people are stuck and help and plows are needed! That's like the OB doctor telling a patient "oh people have babies every day, no big deal, you don't need any help or special attention as this thing happens all time." Then that same doctor tells all the people he can " oh don't worry about this pregnant person, all the other pregnant people before her have taken care of this situation, no big deal." The point is rather it's worse or better or whatever it is, it is happening, it is a emergency, and it needs to be addressed!
