Sierra Snow Brings Delays, Much-Appreciated Powder

BLUE CANYON (CBS13) — After a painfully dry past few months, Sierra snow is back in a big way with a storm blowing through Northern California.

Drivers were treated to hours of tail lights as they were stuck in traffic on their way into the mountains.

"[It took] two hours, and then I sat on the side of the road for an hour trying to get my chains on," one driver said.

A couple wanted to sneak in an evening ski, but since the drive took forever, they settled for a roll in the snow they say was just as fun.
