The latest updates from Yosemite seem to indicate the road is clear of snow but there is still more work to be done with snowmelt causing a hazardous situation on the roadway.

News Release Date: June 23, 2017

The Tioga Road in Yosemite National Park (Highway 120 through the park) remains closed to all vehicular traffic, including bicycles. Melting snow is causing water to run over the road in multiple locations, creating a safety hazard. Park staff and partners continue to conduct necessary repairs to power, communications, water, and sewer systems along the Tioga Road following a record-breaking year for winter snowpack.
The extent of the snowpack at high elevation and the impact it has also been mentioned.

April snow surveys indicated that in the high elevation regions of Yosemite, the park saw the highest snowpack on record. In many locations above 8,000 feet in elevation, the snowpack measured over 200 percent of average (based on water content). The increased snowpack has resulted in a late opening of the Tioga Road for the summer season. Warm summer weather has led to increased melting of the snowpack, resulting in high water levels that are fluctuating daily.
Not ideal for those wishing to use the pass at this time, but I am sure the boost to the water table will be music to the ears of those that rely on it.
