For all you guys that live in ACTUAL snow areas, this IS like a hundred years storm in SoCal. Kids off of school, Red Cross rolling in. Life's a barrel of monkeys out here......no, really!

Ya - Euclid in Upland. About 1500' above sea level. Angeles National Forest and Mt. Baldy begin about a mile behind me.

Didn't get squat here. Fine by me. Keep that white schit to the north where it belongs. Way north.

Tabs - Right off Euclid and 14th - in what was probably a lemon grove when you lived here.

Jay - I was a tough day - I think the snow must have lasted at least an hour or two. However, it did remain very cold - got down to 34 last night. Had to keep the top on the Targa!

Yep, it's still cold. I'm wearing long pants and a jacket while BBQ-ing in the back yard right now, and I'm thinking of putting some gloves on cause the beer's too cold to hold onto.

On the contrary ! Warmest winter in southern Sweden for ages. No salt on the roads. Still Porsche driving (contributing to global warming).

We are at only 825ft elevation in the Santa Monica mtns; it was below freezing for more than 12 hours straight with a low of 21F. I'm an L.A. native and this was the coldest night I have seen in many, many years.

Good Morning L.A.

It was so cold yesterday that I had to button the collar on my jacket when riding the Gold Wing. Nice part is the aux colling fan didn't come on the entire 50 mile ride. Battery actually got a pretty good charge.....
