With the season we've had in the Sierra, who wouldn't want an extra hour of sunshine to beat those end-of-winter blues? (Even if we might have to wait for sunshine and no snow for a few days)
Don’t forget to set any clocks that aren’t on a smart device ahead one hour before heading to bed Saturday night, and, if you're like me, it will take weeks to pull out the instructions on changing the clock in our cars and on the microwaves.

PHILLIPS, Calif. - The numbers weren't much of a surprise Thursday as the Department of Water Resources (DWR) conducted the third Phillips Station snow survey of 2019.
What they found in the spot they've been using to measure since 1941 was good news.
The manual measurement recorded 113 inches of snow depth and a snow water equivalent (SWE) of 43.5 inches, which is more than double what was recorded last month at this location.
Statewide, the Sierra Nevada snowpack is 153 percent of average for this date, thanks to several atmospheric rivers during February.

Submitted by paula on Wed, 02/20/2019 - 11:26pm
EL DORADO COUNTY, Calif. - Two skiers and their dog spent two chilly nights in the snow before being rescued by a California Highway Patrol (CHP) helicopter on Monday morning.
The El Dorado County Sheriff's Office requested CHP Helicopter H-20 to assist them in locating skiers who had been missing since the afternoon of Saturday, February 16. H-20 located the skiers in the snowy mountains miles away from Highway 88 and Peddler Hill, south of Lake Tahoe. They had built a snow cave to survive the sub-freezing temperatures.
