It doesn't look like much, but a few weeks before my trip to Southern California, a major storm dropped 10 feet of snow in parts of the San Bernardino Mountains. Several buildings had roofs that collapsed and at least 13 people were killed in the storms or the aftermath when services were cut off for a time. From the air, it just looks beautiful and I think some of it melted by this point in late March. Anyway, overcast in Irvine when I landed but still, beautiful weather, if a bit cool to the locals. From a midwesterner's perspective, even with the mild winter we had this year, it was very nice.
