Local news? Sheesh, I wouldn't trust them to tell me the sky is blue.

As for this particular question, a Google search
<http://www.google.com/search?&q=california+road+conditions+tioga+pass>
quickly leads to the Caltrans site
<http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/roadinfo/sr120>, which is updated hourly and
should be fairly reliable. Here's what they have to say tonight:
