Residents living around Lake Tahoe, California, were preparing themselves for a winter storm on Wednesday, January 24, forecast to bring between eight and 16 inches of snow to the region.

This video of Lake Tahoe’s choppy waves was filmed by a marine crew from the Placer County Sheriff’s Office. It shows the crew’s boat in five-to-six-foot swells, a sheriff’s office spokesman wrote in an accompanying Facebook post.

The vessel was a 35-foot moose boat with a catamaran hull, weighing about 20,000 pounds, according to local news reports.

A National Weather Service weather warning was issued for the region on January 24 and would remain until at least January 26, according to reports on the Tahoe Daily Tribune. Credit: Facebook/Placer County Sheriff’s Office via Storyful
