My family and I live in San Francisco and we are thinking of going a cheap trip to Reno, Nevada. We are planning to take the Greyhound. Does anyone know if it snows in Reno around December 10-16? I know it snows like up the mountains, but does it snow down where Circus Circus Reno Hotel is?

every so often. but it never really sticks long, I'll bet they'd love to see a blizzard about now, them ski resorts bring in money and most of them are closed, bummer! but I bet you can get a killer deal on a suite about now!

I lived in Reno from 1992-1999 - one year it snowed right before Christmas in the mountains and then flooded on New Years Day (1997) in the city. The majority of the downtown area (where all the casinos are) was affected.If the storms are powerful enough to get over the mountains, then yes, it could snow. And if does, they frequently shut down I-80 and Hwy 50 too. Saw that happen many times when Reno didn't get any snow, just Tahoe and the Truckee area.Reno is at approx. 4500 feet, so if you hear the snow level is falling below that, that's when Reno could get snow. It won't halt the city especially if you're just staying downtown and walking around. Just be prepared that the interstate could close for a bit if that does happen.

had the first snow of the year today (11-30). It was gone in a couple hours. That could be it for the year or we could have a dozen blizzards. I would suggest checking the forecast for reno a few days before you come. I think you can see that from your yahoo home page.
