How much do you bet the highway patrol guy gives him a ticket? He's screwed now. #DonnerSummit #DonnerPass

Steinberg off at Donner Summit again. https://www.youtube.com/live/Mtg-sL6ugXo #CAwx #stormchasing #DonnerSummit

Youngest brother made it safely over Donner summit this evening. Well worth the $150 for chains plus install and 3 hours of extra travel time.

@ai6yr At least there is comfort on #donnersummit knowing there is always nutritious food readily available

Donner Summit is a wee bit busy tonight. But it's moving. #donnersummit #snow #CAwx

A bajillion cars all driving up to Donner Summit in a traffic jam

Welfare checks on truckers 😬

CHP pounding on the side of a truck trying to determine if the driver is okay or not. #DonnerPass #DonnerSummit #CAwx #snow

Man in reflective gear with radio, CHP rig behind. Man is pounding on side of a rig trying to figure out if people are inside and if they are okay or not.

This looks like it really, really blows if you are a trucker. #DonnerSummit #blizzard #CAwx #snow #stranded

Big rig being pulled out of the snow by a tow truck

I hope these truckers packed food. #DonnerSummit #DonnerPass #blizzard #CAwx #snow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sL9ectO13gA

Semi buried up past the top of the hood in snow

Red semi with a man in it. Snow up past the hood. The semi is not moving.

And the “recovery” begins for the many 18 wheelers stranded on I-80 at #donnersummit #Cawx #blizzard https://youtu.be/sL9ectO13gA?si=gRkK7g_tS1_lBNKB

No reports of cannibalism......this time.

"At one point, emergency personnel and tow trucks had a difficult time getting to motorists due to blizzard conditions. @CaltransDist3
is currently evaluating the roads and we will be working on recovering vehicles left on the freeway after motorists were transported to a safe location. There is no estimated time of reopening the freeway, so we suggest you stay home. Stay warm and don’t put yourself and your family in a dangerous situation." #DonnerPass #DonnerSummit #snow #traffic #CAwx #CHP #truckee

CHP Truckee: "(03/02/24 at 8:30am)

I-80 remains closed at the Nevada state line and Colfax. Last night, we had a mass amount of vehicles stuck over Donner Summit and it took several hours for emergency personnel and tow trucks to reach motorists."

"UPDATE: Hundreds of cars stranded on I-80 near the Donner Summit…blizzard winds and heaviest snow of the storm starting. It’s a race to see if they can clear the interstate before cars get too buried."

Oh my, no more fun watching Donner Pass. Caltrans cameras are offline now (usually, due to power outage/communications outages due to lines down...) #DonnerSummit #CAwx #snow #blizzard

Stuck on a highway
You're going to be here all night long
No one's going no where
You're going to be there all night long

#DonnerSummit #traffic #CAwx #blizzard #snow

Lights of an interstate, where vehicles aren't moving much, if at all. Brake lights all the way to the Nevada border... deep snow on the sides.

Ouch. Caltrans Quickmap shows traffic stopped entirely over the pass. Another area, 3 vehicles stuck in the road, and somebody abandoned their snowmobile in lanes. #DonnerSummit #CAwx #blizzard #snow https://quickmap.dot.ca.gov/
