It's been snowing on Mt Whitney and Forrester Pass since yesterday.

I've been in severe blizzards every single month of the year in the Sierras except July. So a bit of snow is just another nice day up there.
Here's the link for Forrester Pass: http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...0#.VZ1zUBNVikp. Don't pay any attention to what it says at the top of the page. The forecast location information is given at the lower right.

Aaah. There was a lovely storm last time I was up there that left wonderful lacings of snow all over the crags around Center Basin, and one helluva loud rockfall/semi-avalanche somewhere across the canyon near Forester Peak. My kind of weather.
There's measurable snow at Sonora Pass, too.
The title from the linked local news article reads, "Snow And Lightning Caused Fires". Hmmm? I didn't know snow could cause a fire. ;-)
They changed the title of the article, so the above is now out of context.
Be careful out there, gents.

It's raining cats n' dogs right now at my office on the Bay, in the month it "never" rains here.
