LOL 25.9 with heavy snow.
If anything that is warm for Truckee. Heavy snow is very common there. I was there once when there was like 7' on the ground and an incoming storm was supposed to bring in another 9 " that night. We booked it back West down what was then Hwy 20(Now I-80)so we didn't get caught in it.
California is definitely getting slammed right now, especially in the higher elevations where they are measuring new accumulation in feet today.
One place now has 102" on the ground with heavy snow still falling.
