    Well it should...it's Spring...I know...I changed my clocks!

    6 inches of snow at the Dunsmuir scales at noon today....I woke up at the Kla Mo Ya Indian Casino about 0830 and sat there watching the southbound trucks with 4-5 inches of snow on top...probably did the overnight at Chemult or Lone Pine.
