Cold storm dumps snow on Southern California mountains, threatens severe thunderstorms

The strong, cold storm that blasted damaging Santa Ana winds across the Southland on Thursday changed course overnight, dumping up to a foot of snow on San Bernardino County's highest peaks and threatening thunderstorms throughout much of Southern California. By early Friday, Snow Valley and Bear Mountain resorts had already received 12 and 13 inches of snow, respectively, and forecasters expect several more inches to fall by the end of the day.

Elevations as low as 4,000 feet, including Garner Valley near Hemet and in Julian in San Diego County, saw about an inch of snow. As snow continued to fall Friday afternoon, Tardy said another 1 to 5 inches would be likely, with higher amounts at higher elevations. Most of the snowfall is expected through Friday evening, but he said some could stick around Saturday. “We’ve seen the coldest and worst part to the storm,” Tardy said Friday morning. He said the heaviest snowfall began about 9 p.m.
