They expect 5 feet of snow in Dunsmuir, California this weekend

 But, I'll believe it when I see it. Normally this would never happen because Dunsmuir is in altitude much lower than the Little City of Mt. Shasta. Normally you would get the most snow on the mountain and the 2nd most snow in the City of Mt. Shasta. But, for some reason they are predicting 5 feet of new snow in Dunsmuir and then 4 feet of new snow in the city of Mt. Shasta and then about 3 feet of new snow on Mt. Shasta the mountain. Very strange weather conditions if this actually happens. My friend was so blown away by these strange conditions that he called me from Mt. Shasta to tell me about this strange weather condition coming.

But, he also told me he has already hired his neighbor's backhoe to snow plow his road so he doesn't get stuck there in his vehicles on his land. So, they expect to have to plow 4 feet of new snow on top of the 2 feet they already have there?

This is already sounding like a winter out of the 1980s or 1970s already. This was more normal then before Global climate changes all over.

The problem is that some roofs might collapse under 5 feet of new snow. This would be the main problem I might foresee on older homes in Dunsmuir, especially the ones that don't have much pitch to the roofs or are closer to being flat roofs there too. So, getting snow shovels or even snow blowers to clear roofs might be the difference between a collapsed roof and one that holds up through all this.

Also, this likely will mean that Interstate 5 might be closed from about Redding at Fawndale some or all of Friday, Saturday and possibly into Sunday this week. Because 5 feet of snow in Dunsmuir likely is going to close Interstate 5 under most normal conditions. But, if the ground is warm enough to melt the snow really quickly and we don't get black ice forming on the pavement (which is incredibly dangerous because you usually can't see it until it's too late) it's possible the Freeway might not close.

But, I think it's at best a 50 50 chance that the I-5  freeway is going to be closing (at least one or more nights) either Friday, Saturday nights would be the most likely here.
