KINGVALE, California (KOLO) - UPDATE: Chain controls in the Sierra have been lifted. Westbound trucks are still required to stop at Nyack.

ORIGINAL STORY: Chain controls are in effect for some parts of I-80 as the first snow of the season has fallen in the mountains.

The controls are in effect along east and westbound I-80 between Kingvale and the Donner Lake interchange.

As a result of the snowfall, an eastbound lane is also blocked due to a jackknifed big rig. There is no estimated time of reopening.
