It is rather early for much snow in SCalifornia, but the skiers and boarders are happy, along with the resort owners. At one time this past week the snow level was down to 1800 feet, but we have had sunshine since, so some of it has melted on the lower slopes.
First, here is a view of downtown Los Angeles taken from Bastanchury hill in Fullerton It is about 35 miles away, due west.
This is Mt. San Gorgonio about 70 miles due east as the crow flies. Taken from the Anaheim Lakes area.
San Bernardino Mountains from Fullerton's Bastanchury Hill. From here the crow would have to fly 50 miles north by northeast.
North by northwest maybe 40 miles are the San Gabriel Mtns. They overlap the San Bernardinos, so the two together appear to be one mountain range.

And that's just where the snow should be. Lovely to look at.
Our Mt. Diablo had a dusting of snow a few days ago.
Our snow is melting and it is Birkenstock-shirtsleeve weather again. I know it's not good, but it feels lovely and happy. As always, your pictures brighten my day.
Wow, I never realized that snow-topped hills were so close to "LA"! Now I'm sure it's winter.
