Southern California Mountains Hit by Heavy Snow and Strong Winds

Share news:

Southern California – A powerful winter storm is continuing to affect the Southern California mountains, with heavy snow and strong winds of up to 35 mph causing disruptions on Monday, January 27. The National Weather Service (NWS) issued a winter storm warning on Saturday for the eastern San Gabriel Mountains, including the Angeles Crest Highway, warning residents and drivers to be prepared for challenging conditions.

The NWS has predicted that the region will receive up to 14 inches of snow, accompanied by gusty winds. The snowfall combined with icy conditions and poor visibility is creating hazardous driving conditions, particularly along the Angeles Crest Highway. On Sunday, local driver @unstableair posted a video showing snow, rain, and dense fog on the highway, highlighting the treacherous travel conditions.

Travelers are urged to exercise caution as the winter storm continues to affect the area, with slippery roads and reduced visibility making travel difficult. While the storm is expected to subside in the coming days, officials are advising residents and drivers to remain alert and follow the latest weather updates.

In addition to the snow, the strong winds in the mountains are making it feel even colder, leading to dangerous wind chills. Authorities are urging people to take proper precautions, including staying inside when possible and dressing warmly if they must venture outdoors.
