An update on an extreme winter storm in the Sierra. Also, how Sacramento’s leading mayoral candidates would respond to homelessness and affordable housing. Finally, “Shaken Not Stirred” combines music and dance at The Sofia.

Snow storm update

Snow measured in feet, howling wind and blizzard conditions all led to road closures, power issues, and an overall wild weekend in the Sierra. We are getting updates from Dr. Andrew Schwarz, Lead Scientist and Manager at the UC Berkeley Central Sierra Snow Laboratory - which is based at Donner Summit. We will also hear from ABC10 Meteorologist Rob Carlmark on the totals of the storm and its impact on the snow season. And Jeremy Linder, a Public Information Officer for Caltrans District 3, provides an update on the roads following weekend closures over both summits. 

Sacramento mayoral candidate profiles

It’s the day before the California Primary and we are honing in on the race for Sacramento mayor - which can be decided on March 5 if a candidate gets more than 50% of the vote. We’re focusing on how the candidates would approach two of the city’s most pressing issues - homelessness and affordable housing. CapRadio Reporter Chris Nichols profiled the leading four mayoral candidates and shares conversations with former city councilmember Steve Hansen, current state Assemblymember Kevin McCarty, former state Senator Dr. Richard Pan, and epidemiologist Dr. Flojaune Cofer. 

'Shaken Not Stirred' at The Sofia

A new performance this weekend at The Sofia, Home of the B Street Theatre, combines dance and the music behind the world’s most famous fictional spy - James Bond. Shaken Not Stirred runs Saturday, March 9 at 7 p.m., as well as Sunday, March 10 at 2 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. Artistic Director and Choreographer Jacob Gutiérrez-Montoya and Assistant Artistic Director Kendra Barrera from the Sacramento Contemporary Dance Theatre preview the song-and-dance performance, which includes a collaboration with the Samantics Choir.
