We have a big cold storm coming down from Canada into our area on Thurs through Sat. It will have high winds, rain, snow and freezing temperatures. They are predicting that it may even snow in LA!!! Many years ago we woke up to a very light dusting of snow. You needed to get up before dawn to see it because as soon as the sun came up, it melted. For this storm, the prediction is for maybe an inch or more of snow. Of course, we don't have any snow removal equipment in LA so the city will shut down if that happens. I live close to the coast where it is a few degrees warmer in the winter and a few degrees cooler in the summer. I may see only rain but if it snows, I'll have my phone camera charged and ready to snap pics. The mountain areas will have blizzard conditions with 2-4 feet of snow. People are already rushing to the stores to stock up on grocery supplies. Meanwhile, my two boys and I will stay inside where it is warm and we're hoping no one will have a loss of power.

Watch out for other people driving their cars in snow for the first time ever, TPM.
I was in Florida the year after it snowed one time and people were still talking about the accidents!

Because of the high winds and high surf, many of the piers along the beaches have been closed to the public. People just want to take a chance and get out in the middle of it and then they put other people in danger trying to rescue them!

The rain is still coming down today. It didn't get cold enough to snow in my neighborhood but areas north of me saw some snow. The Hollywood sign did get snow but there was so much fog it was hard to see. Google 'snow on Hollywood sign' and you'll see some pics taken by professionals. The news said the last time it snowed here was 1938. With the high winds, we're having power outages all around. Fortunately my power has stayed on. This storm is predicted to hang around today, then we'll have a couple good days and a milder storm next week.

No snow in my neighborhood but we got hail. What appears to be a light dusting of snow is actually hail. The picture is from a neighbor's yard.  |
