David - we just returned from Tahoe and things are looking good. It started snowing after midnight and it was still snowing when we left about 10 am. Both Hwy. 50 & 88 required chains or 4WD and snow tires, so go prepared! And yes, they got snow at lake level, too.

This picture of the slopes at Heavenly Valley gets updated every 5 minutes from 6:30 to 4:30. There are links to other slopes as well.

They also have a live daily report on their webpage.
