[DeTomaso] Reno weather - Susanville and north

Thu May 26 19:18:42 EDT 2011

So far in the 10 years we've now lived here, there is no pattern; its pretty much day by day, week by week and so on.  We just hope for spring to finally settle in before summer gets here altho that didn't happen last year!

My recollection of last year was that there was a significant snow storm 
just a couple weeks before the Event.

Ideally, the weather will follow last year's behavior and clear out in time 
for us.  Although, I'd like to place my order now for less fog in the 
mornings.  It was a bummer when crossing into Tahoe and we couldn't see the 
vistas.  Previous year was spectacular.
