The latest storms this weekend pushed the snowpack atop Donner Summit into fourth place on the list of snowiest seasons for the area, topping 624 inches since Oct. 1 at UC Berkeley’s Central Sierra Snow Lab, just a few miles from Maas’ house.

Same goes for Maas, whose husband has done almost nothing over the last two weeks besides plow their football field-length driveway along Towle Mountain Drive near the crest of Interstate 80. Routinely-impassable road conditions have often forced the couple to miss work as a waitress and builder. In the northern Sierra, a half-dozen buildings, including airport hangars, collapsed in recent weeks near Nevada City, said Mary Eldridge, a Cal Fire spokeswoman. In South Lake Tahoe, two commercial buildings recently collapsed, along with the overhangs for a couple of gas stations. The roof of another flat-roofed warehouse in Tahoe City also recently gave way.

Stephanie Olivieri, third-generation Truckee resident, walks with her dog Timothy to open her clothing store Cabona’s, Saturday, March 11, 2023, in downtown Truckee, Calif. But residents fear what could happen as warmer “Pineapple Express” storms from Hawaii and the Pacific tropics flow into the state, raising the levels that precipitation falls as rain, rather than snow, making the snowpack heavier. Demand for roof-clearing services is so great Placer County officials warned residents of price-gouging, citing one auspicious $20,000 quote.

Heidi DeHart and Emily Ritter walk their dogs along snow-covered Bear Creek Road near their homes in Alpine Meadows, Calif., Friday, March 10, 2023.
