Yosemite NP - Has Tioga Road ever been closed in October for the last five years?

Question

I'm planning to cross Sierra Nevada via Road 120 in Yosemite National Park. How likely is it, that the Pass is closed in October?

The first time I went, Tioga was closed.  That was the first week in October.  I went over Sonora Pass instead and there was about a foot of snow on the ground!  Only time I ever rode in snow.

Here's a list of closing times by year.  You can see it can be any time between late September and early November!

It all depends on the weather and no one can predict that.
