Yeah, the weather is bad outside now.
By SCOTT SONNER Associated Press Writer RENO, Nev. (AP) - Winds gusting more than 100 mph have left thousands without electricity in Reno and caused travel havoc across northern Nevada. The California Highway Patrol closed part of westbound Interstate 80 north of Lake Tahoe on Tuesday morning after wind flipped a truck on its side and snow began to fall. As much as a foot of snow was expected in the upper elevations by Wednesday. About 5,000 homes and businesses were without power in Reno, where wind ripped off shingles, blew a school bus' door off its hinges and uprooted hundreds of trees, including a 70-foot-tall pine. Reno-Tahoe International Airport recorded sustained winds up to 63 mph, and more than a dozen flights were canceled. One gust topped 125 mph near the Mount Rose Ski Resort between Reno and Tahoe.
