TRUCKEE – All traffic was being held on Interstate 80 in the Sierra as a winter storm dropped heavy snow Thursday afternoon.

Caltrans said eastbound traffic was held at Drum Forebay while westbound traffic was held at the state line and Truckee due to spinouts. Caltrans officials also advised people not to travel over the Sierra on I-80.

Eastbound traffic was released around 4 p.m., but remained closed to all tractor-semitrailer combinations from Applegate to the state line. Westbound traffic was still being held in Truckee.
