Above is the latest video update from Dean in Mt. Shasta City, CA from last night just after the first wave of precipitation. He's currently in the process of taping another video update, as the precipitation with the main show is now moving in with two inches of slushy snow in the last hour. Right now, northern CA is receiving intense warm advection precip ahead of the cold front, which has resulted in a temporary increase in the snow levels over the mountains. Thus, the precip at Mt. Shasta has more recently changed over to a rain/snow mix. This will change as the cold front moves through, and conditions will be INSANE at Dean's location. Shown below is the radar loop from around 8-9:00 am PST as the heavy precip shield was moving in to Mt. Shasta.


Below is a link for the live webcam on top of Mt. Shasta, along with the current temperature and meteogram. Based on the meteogram, temperatures have been remaining nearly steady if not falling slightly through the overnight hours into this morning, but a sharp decrease in temperature is expected as the cold front nears. Stay tuned for more video updates from Dean in Mt. Shasta!
