Wow, that is cool! It's a special thing to have snow on the beach in California. I wonder what the average return period of that would be...I'd guess once per ten years or so.
The current hazard map for SoCal is wild, too. A flash flood warning for Ventura and LA counties, with a blizzard warning immediately to the north, and a special marine warning for possible waterspouts off the coast.
Reports of snow falling (and even accumulating!) at spots as low as ~1,000 ft elevation this morning in southern California! That includes some highly populated areas that very rarely see any snow at all.
The Upper level height pattern currently. The center of the ULL off the coast is now almost at the Los Angeles latitude.
Those of you who don't know, an ULL is my favorite weather feature. Google it to find out what it is. Basically a Vortex. A Cold pool of air that brings instability at the surface
You can CLEARLY see this when looking at the current temps at 10,000 feet
