10:55 - Greetings from Snowy California
|
(top) |
Every other year or so, we have a day or two where a winter storm dumps some snow on the mountains on the eastern edge of the Bay Area, on Mt. Hamilton and its surrounding modest peaks, making them briefly seem a lot more lofty than they really are. The snow's usually gone by lunchtime, but it's always a time for people to slow down and look, if only for a minute.
A dusting on the eastern mountains isn't that unusual. But I hardly ever see this happen: snow on the southern ridge, the Santa Cruz Mountains, right along the edge of Cupertino:
If that's not an omen for a good ski weekend, I don't know what is!
