The snow is only one aspect of this storm, and looking at NWS warnings for that area, the shit's gonna get real bad for a lot of people in Cal and Oregon. I don't know why there isn't a lot of media coverage on this event. They shoved Sandy down everyone's throat. This storm looks to be historic, deadly, and very costly. Mountain snows and valley rains of intense levels, winds in some places gusting to 90 mph, and "chaotic seas", as NWS put it. Looks like a rough ride.
