Late this afternoon Mount Diablo still had quite a bit of snow above around 1,000 feet. The look in my son's eyes told the story: he sure wishes he could play in the snow instead of do homework!

Just raining at my house in Las Vegas....Last winter we did get a lot of snow for Vegas as Pauly mentioned earlier. It unfortunately has frosted the past couple of nights.... I'm happy for rain since I can't remember the last time it did, but am ready for spring

We are getting COLD tonight. Freak weather. I'm not prepared for this, but I am going to dig what I can up here at 8PM in the dark. Not worth losing my young bananas

Very borderline to having P-stem death

I got eight inches snow at 1,500 ft. We get snow close to every year here but usually not that amount and time it lasted.Most of it lasted until the rain came on that Thursday. I find it hard to believe the last time it snowed in Rocklin was 1976. The weather there can't be much different (if not cooler) than Sacramento and it snowed in Sacramento in 2002 or so.

Before the chilly 2002 event, the last reported trace of snow in Sacramento was registered on Febrary 27, 1996, according to the National Climatic Data Center. The last time there was an official accumulation of snow came on February 5, 1976, when two inches of snow fell over the capital city.

Roseville wasn't lucky enough to get snow in 2002 since I was around. What about 1996? perhaps... But for sure 1976.

51st state

Aaah mentions of Bakersfield. the town will stay with me forever, staying in 'the shining' hotel, with a deep pile brown carpet overlooking the bail bonds shops and the AMTRAC line. got out of there at about 5AM and headed for Yosemite.

If it's any consolation it's bloody freezing here too with 10" snow due tonight, the news was full of northern hemisphere cold stories from China and Korea. roll on springtime and the years first holiday which will probably be to Gran Canaria where they grow 'Naners, but don't tell my wife thats one of the reasons we're headed there :-)

It broke my heart when my AeAe snapped off, but as I stated earlier it some how missed all of the pups. The pups (largest a little over a foot tall) all seem to be alive and green even though they don't have any leaves growing on them yet. Have only had 1 or 2 days of very light patchy frost with warm days so the weather has been in my favor.
