Residents in parts of Southern California who have not seen snow in decades woke up to an icy wonderland Sunday morning.
Residents in parts of Southern California who have not seen snow in decades woke up to an icy wonderland Sunday morning following an epic winter storm that broke rainfall records and scattered fresh powder across the normally warm, sunny region.
The frigid conditions dropped snow levels to 1,000 feet in some areas on Saturday, enough for snowball fights, snowman building and the unusual sight of foothills glistening with sparkling powder. Mountain communities were slammed by intense snowfall, with Mountain High clocking an impressive 93 inches of snow. As of Sunday morning, Interstate 5 through the Grapevine was still closed due to snow, along with many mountain roads.
“This is definitely much more than your run-of-the-mill Southern California winter storm,” he said. “I think this kind of proves the point that, yes, we do get weather out here. It may not happen as much as other parts of the country, but we do get some really active weather out here at times.” There were reports of flurries at the Hollywood sign and snow falling in places like Glendale and Santa Clarita. Some families traveled to snow-covered areas in the Antelope Valley for a day of fun.
