I’ve never seen snow at lower elevations in Southern California. The last big snowstorm to hit the Southland was the Great Pasadena Blizzard of 1949, which buried the region under four inches of snow.
However, we had a hail storm last month that covered everything with white stuff—biggest hail storm I’ve ever seen.
Wow four inches.
Had that here this morning didn’t think much of it.
I so well remember that snow in 1949. Have motion pictures of me coming down the street on a sled... in Highland Park, Ca!!! I was 8 years old.
That’s what was told. It was my birthday, January 10th, 1949.
I am in lowland Western Washington. It is chilly and rainy today but there has been no snow whatsoever yet in this winter season. We are 1100 miles north of LA. It is amazing that they get snow before we do.
Describe ‘lower elevation’.
