Expect delays if traveling in the Sierra | Traffic and Updates

From Nyack, headed to and from the Nevada state line, chain controls remain active since approximately 7:50 a.m.

CALIFORNIA, USA — California is in the midst of a series of winter storms as many drivers take to the roads for holiday travel. 

According to the National Weather Service, that means travel issues could stretch into the holiday weekend, and that people should be prepared for extensive delays on the roadways this week. 

The storm comes as AAA says about 14 million people in Northern California hit the roads and head to the airport. Along the way, those travelers could wind up dealing with slick roads, chain controls and possible whiteout conditions if they head toward the mountains. The National Weather Service says the snow could make travel "difficult if not impossible" in the Sierra at times.
