Temperatures well above normal as we ring in 2018
Submitted by paula on Thu, 12/28/2017 - 12:41pm
Temperatures are well above normal in Lake Tahoe and there is no snow in sight, for now. The highs will be in the 50s and will be close to record breaking.
There is a persistent ridge of high pressure along the West Coast, preventing major storms from breaking through and bringing snow to Lake Tahoe. Expect things to not change through New Year's Day, but there is some hope for precipitation at the end of next week.
A front will drop down near Susanville this weekend, but nothing is expected further south, but temperatures will drop a couple of degrees.

George McCall 1929 ~ 2017
Submitted by Anonymous on Sun, 12/03/2017 - 7:39pm
Anyone that knew George knows that he was not only extremely generous, fun loving and tenacious but he was also notorious for playing pranks on nearly everyone he met. Whether he “had to catch a plane” in order to speed up dinner or exaggerated his age by 10 years, he was always one for a smile and a laugh. All of us would describe him as the best husband, father, grandpa and great grandpa we could ask for. Everytime you asked how he was doing, he simply responded with “fantastic.” Which was a perfect reflection of his positive and uplifting personality.

Event Date:
October 31, 2017 (All day) As it stands right now, any tax money collected goes to the General Fund where it can be disbursed as the city sees fit regardless what it is ear. That's why this Measure C is a good tax (if there is a good tax), because it is a specific fund that cannot be used for anything but what it's voted on.
Specifically this started as a way to keep CalPERS from robbing the general fund for unfunded pensions and liabilities. The problem is it's not enough and everyone knows it, even the authors.

The following is a letter received concerning the Sass Talk published on October 7:
I hate to waste my time, but I cannot let the erroneous propaganda put out by the Emperor of City Hall go unrebutted. The City will not let go of this “nuisance” problem as it diverts focus on the dismal road conditions that the City has neglected for years. Also, City management has totally failed to provide a reliable snow removal system as we experienced last winter.

Do not try and cross the snow berm in the center lane. Wait until snow removal crews have cleared the center lane for crossing.
