Rare snow on Huntington Beach plus waterspouts near Los Angeles


Yes you read that headline correctly. Yesterday in Huntington Beach there was snow. And, in Redondo Beach, waterspouts were reported. I'm sure it won't be long before somebody tries to blame these weather events on "global warming" which is fast becoming the "universal bogeyman" for any weather event.

And in downtown:




Waterspouts:

These events were all part of a frontal system moving through, hardly unprecedented. It seems there was a similar event with snow on the beach in 1987.

Observers indicated the snow might be very fine hail, possibly from a cold core thunderstorm. Whatever it is, it has nothing to do with "global warming".
