NOAA says the U.S. winter will likely be warmer with near normal precipitation, but not necessarily snowier, due to El Niño.
While ski resorts remain, open conditions are far from ideal and the region's snowpack is sitting below normal levels. As a result, visitors appear to be changing their plans, and the shift is having a ripple effect on other local businesses.
The Department of Water Resources said the snowpack is 66% of average for this date statewide, with the recent storms not enough to get the state back to average conditions for this time of year.
We're learning more about an incredible rescue that was caught on camera at Palisades Tahoe. Two skiers are credited with saving a man's life after they found him buried in deep snow last week. Their story serves as a reminder for skiers and snowboarders to be prepared.
A Department of Public Works employee was out plowing roads on Long Island when he spotted the pooches running down the westbound side of Sunrise Highway.
As neighbors are scrambling to dig out of the snow, forecasters warn that another storm is on its way.
