Tahoe Time Lapse: Heavy Snow Tips Parked Jet - Part Two- The 'Pull'

Heavy (literally) snow fell overnight in Truckee, CA. on January 15th.

This time-lapse video, captured by the Truckee Tahoe Airport's live streaming webcam, captured the intense snowfall and the 'pull' event, bringing the plane's nose back down, as it happened.
