Highway 395 through Washoe Valley has been re-opened, said Scott Magruder, spokesman for the Nevada Department of Transportation.

High winds and a few accidents had closed off portions of the highway and traffic was being re-routed through East Lake Drive earlier this morning.

Vehicles and campers are not advised to go through but are not prohibited. Chains and snow tires are required.

“It’s calmed a little bit and not as bad as it was,” Magruder said.

A winter storm warning remains in effect for the Carson City region through 4 p.m. today. Go to carsonweather.com for the very latest.
