Saddleback Snow: Don’t Blink
December 11th, 2007 by Kelson. Posted in General and tagged for Mountains, OrangeCounty, saddleback, snow, SoCalThere was a little snow on Mt. Saddleback on Sunday, but not much worth mentioning. Sometime early Tuesday morning, though, a freak storm seems to have hit the mountain… and only the mountain. We certainly didn’t get any rain down here in the flatlands.
At 8:20, the mountains were still shrouded in clouds:
By 9:00, the clouds were starting to burn off, leaving behind a coat of snow, not just on Santiago and Modjeska peaks (still behind clouds), but on the lower peaks to the northwest.
By noon, most of the snow had melted. There’s still some in the shadowed crevices.
