People were told not to head into the Sierras during this Monster storm..why do people insist
Well, to be fair, we're very dependent on regular trucking but yes many drivers had the option of avoiding driving altogether and should've done so if they could but you really can't blame those who had limited options. I'm just glad that the video isn't reporting casualties.
Cause they are people and like cats they are curious. Thumbs up to all those brave folks that took to the road to take part in the Mother of All Storms.
because they're californians they don't have common sense, you should've seen when we had a storm in san diego the news, police, everybody stay off the beaches, 30 mins later bunch of white dudes surfing LOL
Selfishness. No regard for others or the people that have to rescue them.
Because no one believes the media anymore. They've exaggerate the severity of normal weather patterns so much for the last several years, with every flood, tornado, hurricane, heatwave is the worst on record.
Cried wolf one to many times is my guess why people didn't heed the warning.
In case you don't know. Donner Pass is a 7,056-foot-high (2,151 m) mountain pass in the northern Sierra Nevada.
Why don't we see snow road closures and traffic stranded in the Colorado Rockies and the mountains of Montana and Wyoming?
@@Julie-pb9iz wind and weather conditions.
@@Julie-pb9iz The Sierras, being closer to the ocean, get much wetter/snowier storms. 3 feet of snow in a day doesn't happen much in the Rockies but does typically happen a couple times per year around Tahoe. Sea level California drivers and cross country I-80 travelers aren't prepared for it!
Some possibilities: Less traffic -- there's unfortunately only one road over the Sierra Nevada. Also, generally snow in Colorado is not this heavy.
@@beandoggle I’ve lived in both places and the 70 gets shut down during bad storms. They should have shut down the 80 to keep people safe and let the plowers do their job. They knew it was coming and yes, the Sierras get crazy amounts of snow.
You know it's bad when your tires are wearing chains and you still can't get out of the drift.
God Bless all the 1st responders and the snow plow personel. thank you.
🙏🏽. Thank You, 1st responsers
Great job all of you helpers stay safe please
YOU CANT PARK THERE
Ballz, you beat me to it 🤣
Goes dark after 3:40.
Even when these people know a monster storm is coming they still try to venture out in it at the risk of becoming stranded! My dad was a career truck driver from the mid sixties to the early eighties and he would talk about how treacherous this pass was!
There must be a whole wave of people that have no clue of snow difficulties...
They know just stubborn people, if they get caught up in ,it's no mistake.
I got stranded on it a few times as a trucker
now you know why W.Seneca people keep a snow shovel in the Kitchen during winter
Well most of the vehicles were semi trucks so I'm certain that most of those who could avoid the situation, did. Perhaps you should consider your post the next time you visit the supermarket and expect it to be stocked. If you've ever lived along the Gulf coast, you know what a single day's disruption to trucking will do to the supermarkets.
I think it should be noted that these are parts of California where snow is normally expected during winter. This isn't the sunny beaches of Los Angeles.
Of course, grocery store stocks might be a little bit of a problem for a couple of days and Amazon deliveries might be late...
This is Donner, bro. This is where you ate another person to stay alive. Yeah, they were deceased but so what. So not a god damn thing has changed here on Donner for hundreds, thousands, millions of years. If you do not love Cali you must be a TrumpTurd.
We’re in a world of fools
This is normal
for real. my dogs squeaky toy delivery has been pushed back for two days now.
More concerning is the primary election on Tuesday. Hopefully the roads will be plowed enough for voters to get to the polls.
bro we got the mail in ballots.@@corneliusdinkmeyer2190
How much water will California add to their....lake....
A single snow storm would likely be inconsequential. What's needed is to build up a multi-year snowpack on the mountain tops but of course, every little bit helps...
If I understand the conversion, every 10 inches of snow equals one inch of rain. If the area got 4 foot, that's 4.8 inches of rain. That is a bunch. I hope this water helps Lake Mead. I believe the main Cal resevoirs have recovered from low levels.
@@kcjazzcat7822 Still, the consistent release from the snowpack is what's needed not sudden influxes. There's a reason why freshwater is still a problem in countries with monsoon seasons. It's when the fresh water is available that matters. Even lakes and reservoirs are just features that help us slow down the distribution of the water so that we could hope to use it. Running a tap into a bucket is vastly different from running a tap into the drain...
@@johnwang9914 The Sierra Nevada doesn't have a whole lot of permanent snowfields so it's necessary to get snow each year to fill reservoirs and recharge underground aquifers. This storm was about 2 months of average winter precip in 4 days so reasonably consequential!
Why didn’t ppl heed the warnings?? 🤷🏻♀️
Midwest usually get weather like that around this time 😮of year
Not this year. It was an easy peasy for us.
We havent had substantial snow in my part of the midwest for over a decade now. And this winter we barely got 3 inches total the whole season.
We got a pretty good storm last winter... but nothing like this.
I grew up in the midwest, midwest blizzards/lake effect snow are cake walk compared to mountain pass blizzards. Plus it's not flat like the midwest, any incline adds challenge.
Video went dark at 3:42. I guess that’s what everyone felt who was stranded on I80 in a whiteout or at home!! Especially Those buried in a Tahoe avalanche! No one hurt. Thank you responders, tow operators, and CalTrans.
Yeah, what’s up with that?
This was an incredible storm, kudos to everyone who assisted in helping stranded motorist. Here in the northeast if a major storm is predicted, as soon as I hear about it, I make previsions early to be locked in, never wait until the last minute to hit the supermarket for a few items, that could be a dreadful mistake.
That's where I used to live and know exactly what you're talking about. Thankfully I no longer have to deal with that.
FYI, from 3:39 on, its just a blank screen, no sound. Thx for the vid tho.
In Reno we got a few inches but thankfully the only impact for us is no supplies coming over the mountain for a few days (stuff all these trucks were carrying).
Prayers go out to all those blizzard people, Prayers go out to for pets, livestock, rescuers too.
No "Prayers or Sympathy" to all the MORONS that Refuse to Stay Home and Off the Roads. I Feel Sorry for all the Wildlife, Livestock and Pets that are left outside. They are all Dead and Frozen by Now anyway. So Damn Sad!!
To get unstuck. Use your floor mats and tuck them under your tires
Sometimes it works. Not always.
Also, rock it back & forth, drive, then reverse, then drive, then reverse
That didn't work during this one
People insist on being out in weather that they aren't prepared for or are even skilled enough to drive in, yet are surprised when they get stuck or worse.
These "MORONS" need to be FINED Big Bucks for being out Sight Seeing and causing problems for Rescue Workers and Road Workers. I Suggest $10,000 Fine at Minium!!
Just one word.....W O W!!!!
Chains!!!
Sending well wishes to all affected!
🇨🇦❤🇺🇸😊
Hey there Fresno California got hit pretty hard this afternoon there were black clouds thunder and lightning for a full four hour's, I'm not going to lie, it was scary I've lived here 20 some years and never seen anything like it
Other regions just call this 'snow'.
Brother, they got 100 inches of snow in 4 days. That is 254cm for "other regions". Don't try to downplay that. The snowiest "region" on earth averages 312 inches (792cm) a YEAR.
In California we call it 'fun'! 🌨 🏂 ❄️ ☃️
Dude what is happening right now I'm in Rochester New York and it's 72°
climate change due to continuing usage of fossil fuels like there's no tomorrow.
How many of those drivers don't speak any English are in shorts and flip-flops😂
Are there reasons for people not keeping the the roads clear for snow plows to reopen the roads ?
Who do you expect to open the roads for snow plows? Snow plows ARE the ones who do it.
Praying for Jeremy Renner.
Y'all be safe out there.
Yes because he's the only one being affected by this.
How come after 3:30 in it all goes black screen? I guess we're seeing snow at night with no lights or sound?
Wow at 3:29 you realize there's that much snow underneath the overpass
The problem is about 8 out of 10 cal trans snow blowers are broken down with emissions or electronic problems, so cal trans used the next best thing which was the plows & that put the 5 foot of snow next to the trucks on the side of the road & made the big problem of digging the truck out & pulled trucks thru the snow bank on the driver side of the truck!!
Snow much, holy shit.
Who are the heroes here?
CHP, tow, plow. Badasses. THANK YOU!!!!!
Let's not forget even for a second, this is Donner. This is where we ate each other to stay alive. Gotta love it.
I want to visit the Donner Pass picnic area 😋
There is no "we". We're not all selfish or stupid.
Pray for all those in snow banks right now that nobody knows they're there. If they can't dig themselves out, then they'll perish. It's not a joke. There needs to be rescue teams looking for cars off the roads with sonar equipment. We know there's people trapped and screaming for help right now. I hear them.
You're supposed to step out and clear the snow around your car every fifteen minutes to half an hour during a snowstorm, otherwise if you have a gasoline or diesel engine, you'd die of carbon monoxide poisoning once the air intakes and exhausts gets blocked. If people are buried in their cars, they probably killed themselves by idling the engine just for the heat, if they've been digging themselves out periodically as they should, they shouldn't be buried, at least not by as much...
They drove up here knowing there would be a blizzard, I'm sure they all just want to get the whole Donner experience and put it on TikToc.
MAYBE IF THEY WATCHED ACCU WEATHER. THEY WOULD NOT BE IN THIS MESS.
After living in the mountains, I realized how cold amd cruel the people are who live there. Have some humanity. Not everyone can see what's coming, nor understand how truly perilous life in the cruel mountains can be. It's better to pray for the ones who may be victims of their own naivety. I didn't know how cold and brutal -40 could be until I experienced it. If there weren't some good and kind people where I was, I'd of perished my first year in the mountains. Find your humanity guys. People can fall victim to the elements anywhere. Along coastlines there's floods and tsunamis, there's wildfires in the midwest and anywhere practically possible. Tornadoes and hurricanes. We need more humane, moral and ethical responses here folks. Being naive is a part of life. I avoid the ocean because I KNOW everything in it wants to eat me. Have a heart ya'll. People are trapped right now and dying. They need heroes, not zeroes.
@@McGussen Disasters brings out the best and worst of people. I don't see people being excessively cruel in their posts, it's just that the weather was forecasted, everyone except the commercial truckers had the option of avoiding the weather completely and there are preparations that you should make and procedures to take during such adverse conditions. If anything, discussing the expected preparations and procedures on a public forum is a kindness to those who may not know them. If we're unfortunate enough to be in these situations, we would all still try to help each other through the disaster. It's quite common for stranded travellers to group up so they could reduce the digging needed and conserve the fuel for heating. People will help each other in these situations.
I wish we had such snowfall here, in Moldova
its only fun for the first couple of feet
No you don't. It's more trouble than you think it is.
You Moldavian do not pay taxes to the Gods and because of this you have no precipitation and snow...😂😂😂
Great pictures.
Last few minutes are blank.
Hey !! Truckee. Foresty Forest was up there camped out for a several days ! He had some cool video too, with the trains in the background, but this really shows the domestic impact of the storm. 👍👍
Amazing!!
😯 That's a lot of snow!
This is why you avoid driving during blizzards. Putting others in harms way to rescue you is not why the warning was given.
Montana every winter. lol
Moving to Montana. Hope that's a red state.
Montana's annual snowfall is 150 inches. This California storm was 100 inches in 4 days. This isn't Montana every year.
@falling460 its rad in like 3 cities. The west side is beautiful and mountainous. The east side is kind of like the plains and I find it boring. It takes you 4 hours to get anywhere if you have to travel for work (because the state is fucking massive). It's not for everyone. But I also don't live there, just spent time there.
@@Lowenslow460 Yes it is, it has blue cities, overall it's Red.
@RiverRatWA57
where I'm from, red cities don't matter
It hasn't mattered since Ronald Reagan.
They should forecast these sorts of weather events so people don’t venture out and get stuck! 😊
They do... The severe snowstorm was very much forecasted...
@@johnwang9914 woooosh 🤣
Ah yes, the amateur comedians are coming out :)
Really?? They do and they did!
All the technology in the world people still end up in a bad way. Buy some food, break out the board games and hunker down.
Am so concerned. Praying. Are people still stranded. How long til they will all be rescued. Are they OK?
It usually doesn't take long once the snow stops falling no matter how bad it looks. Never underestimate our ability to deal with disasters. Still, it's advisable to keep your vehicles topped up, especially EV's. EV's can actually last longer as they have heat pumps which can be 500% efficient though they only operate above certain temperatures and can heat directly instead of counting on waste heat from idling the engines but they do have to also heat the battery pack and first responders can't just dump a gallon of fuel in to keep everyone going.
I lived out there in the early 80s it always snowed like this
There is really just one good recipe for that kind of thing. Jack Daniels!
How’s the Tesla holdin up?
Where is greta?????
I'm from the east coast we are used to this but never in life have I heard of Cali getting snow wtf is that?
Unbelievable ❣️
Those mountain people are tough!
I question the sanity of people driving into that massive storm over Donner.
Be safe everybody
Once again, Americans continue to drive.
Well, to be fair, California did vote for a high speed rail system to no where, that most likely will not be finished due to being so over budget at this point.😅 don't get me wrong though..I ❤ California!
Why not? It's just a little snow.
Where are the battery powered snow removal machines?
Its crazy how your stuck in this much snow. Just imagine where the truckers are gonna go to the bathroom.
God bless our truck drivers, if it wasn't for them this country would be screwed.
Stay Safe...❤️
I hope everyone who drives the electric cars didn’t make the mistake of trying to drive over the summit.. gas is king of the road. Be safe
Looked to me like the snow didnt discriminate and buried any and every car regardless of what kind of engine it had.
@@Thingsyourollup true that
Try this with electrical vehicles
They were warned!!!
Oh the global warming goodness.
lol, it was a good storm but nothing abnormal. They just like to show the wind drifts, it makes for good theater.
What your electric snow plows arnt good enough
The Amazon prime truck spinning its wheels was kind of funny but I hope everybody's okay. I would have loved to have seen the snow but they said blizzard and I said stay away
So I guess electric vehicles will have to carry a. Small gas generators as well as chains ..?
That "little" gas generator is going to take more fuel than is practical to carry in order to charge the EV.
@@joewoodchuck3824 emergency conditions.. …is what I was looking at….. you. Don’t. Get out. Much. Do. You. !!!!
@@patsquach4080 I DO get emergency conditions. What YOU don't get is that you're still responsible.
@@joewoodchuck3824 I apologize for your misunderstanding of the situation… have a. Fun. Day. If you can !
@@patsquach4080 I was thinking of something else when I said responsibility. In any case the generator doesn't seem like a viable option.
Can't mess with Queen
And they say California don't snow it depends where you live in California
Goodness. The sign "Donner Pass" got me.
Just not sure why CHP didn't close 50 and 80 earlier. They would have saved all first responders grief from idiot Sac and SF drivers as well as idiot trucking companies. What was the point?
Well, you can't shut down a major interstate for something that might happen, especially a snow storm that is usually handled. At what point do you hold the travelers responsible for their decisions.
Don’t worry, Al Gore and Greta are on their way to lecture you about global warming.
So crazy!!! Be safe Californians!! It seems YOU have OUR weather and WE have YOURS! It hit 74!!!! Today in UPSTATE NY FINGERLAKES REGION!
notorious for blizzards and record low temps now!!
It’s strange we’re all feeling like we needed another blizzard
only had one significant snow storm really this year !
Not complaining!
just became new to your channel!
Wow!! Almost like Buffalo NY last year!!
In any event …smh
Be safe! Stay warm and THANK GOD for all the snow removers there along with plow trucks and those who deal with clearing roads keeping power lines safe etc !! DOT 👍 & saw yesterday on UA-cam the Erie Donners Pass!! Live coverage !! Wonder if a snowstorm of this magnitude happened to the infamous party of five!!! Back in the day???
We just saw footage of Truckee CA getting slammned!
Today for the first time in 59 years experienced March 4th at 74 degrees!!!
I drove my convertible with the top down and my dog riding shotgun in the glorious sun and dry roads not a speck of snow anywhere!!!
My convertible normally doesn’t go back on the road from Oct 31 to April sometimes May if salt is still b ing put down to maintain roads due to black ice or slippery conditions! TY for sharing the footage!!
✌️
Snow is so awesome. Awesome in the sense that it brings people together. Everyone is dealing with the same thing. All your petty differences are set aside for a while. People actually help one another.
at least the skiers are happy
Not really. It was so bad, the ski lifts shut down. They might be open now.
Why is half the video a black screen?
Let's see. If you eliminate ignorance and stupidity, then that can only mean that all of these poor people don't have access to the Weather Channel.
Does that means no more drought?
AccuWeather believes California will be mostly drought free through 2025. But it will likely return in the future.
You gotta take the bitter with the sweet
I exchange surf lessons for driving lessons in the snow, I am in the high mountains in Switzerland
Wow 😮
It's a gift for a drought stricken area but we act like it's armageddon.
THEY KNOW THERE IS A BIG STORM BUT THEY STILL TRY TO GO OUT?
Maybe they could collect all the melted snow and put in a resovior so they do not have problems with drought later this year
Gravity and the sun team up to do that for them.
I had no idea California was getting snow
You have heard of Lake Tahoe haven't you... California has mountains and there are higher elevations that receive snow, it's not all sunny beaches in California.
THATS WHAT THE PEOPLE SAID WHEN THEY WERE TRAPPED IN THEIR CAR.
It’s amazing how many people don’t understand that the tallest mountain range in the country gets snow!!!!
🤣😂
How does a region recover from something like that using "green" energy? We need to be asking these questions as events like this become more common...
It's really not even important. What's important is that it gets done. What a stupid term "green energy". Do you mean not using gas, diesel powered equipment?
Want to see how the trains are getting thru !
They have snow pushers on the tracks. There is an awesome video here on YT.
Bunch of snowflakes.
You didn't have to EAT EACH OTHER
I'll let you in on a little secret..it's fun to be a snowflake! ❄️
Not enough jokes like this were made about Donner pass ❤
Did these people not know the big dump was coming?
I hate laws & regulations but sometimes you have to wonder... It was predicted damnit. So maybe authorities should have closed 🚧 the road entirely until safe to cross. 😒
They did, interstate 80 was closed for over a day!
Just get a snowmobile
... cooooool...
Then what, a total blackout
Why did you name your channel Kyle Hates Hiking
Its only Northern California and the mountains. ITS NOT THE WHOLE STATE GOING DOWN IN Snow. But yeah, less than half the state in snow. “BLIZZARD IN CALIFORNIA!!” Like yeah, ALL MOUNTAINS GET BLIZZARDS. Same with rest of country….🙄
And, Where is Your "Wonderful Governer Newsome"?? How much is He Helping?? Oh, He is at His Mansion, nice and warm and snuggly. Plenty of High End Food and No Worries!!
Just saw an Amazon truck on Donnor Pass. For those who are missing packages. ha
Lord bless them. They need to let some air out of their tires that will help them get better traction.
I don't believe this because how did California get snow blowers so fast
You think they just get rid of all their snow removal equipment at the end of every winter and re-buy it all the next winter when snow is in the forecast? Its northern California in the MOUNTAINS, not southern california in the desert in San Diego.
Those snow storms are to show you liberals in California there is no globally warming. How warm is it now.😅
Those snow storms are to show you people that global warming can cause more snow because warmer waters can lead to more moisture for snow storms. Actually learn a bit of science and the difference between global warming and climate change😂
@@crazymanyt5126 Wrong, God Himself controls all the weather worldwide.
Oh that’s right, God, I forgot. Himself, I keep thinking he’s a she. Crazy mixed up gender confused tmes we’re livin’ in.
@@user-kq8nh1gt6q I respect that response. And just to clarify im not mad at you i was just mad at the idea that global warming=less snow
poor Americans...what we, Canadians have seen plenty of.
