Snow, Rain Blanket Southland: Here Are The Storm Totals So Far

Rain, snow and hail, oh my! National Weather Service storm totals are in.

A cold storm system made its way across the Southland early Tuesday morning, dumping rain, hail and snow in the region. Snow levels dropped down to 2,000 feet, making for some hazardous road conditions for commuters — but some beautiful photo ops for those adventuring outside.

According to the National Weather Service, the most snow fell in Big Bear, with 8 inches of fresh powder blanketing the ski resort. Running Springs also received 8 inches, while Oak Glen got 6 inches and Idyllwild got 5. (Scroll down for full rain and snow totals).

Forecasters say the storm is still making its way across Southern California on Tuesday and there's a slight change of more rain and thunderstorms.

"Snow showers will continue in the mountains and adjacent foothills, along with cold conditions," the NWS said. "The storm will exit to the east tonight, with fair but cool weather Wednesday and Thursday. The next storm will move through southern California Friday and Saturday and will bring more rain with snow in the mountains, but a warmer atmosphere will preclude the really low snow levels. Fair weather will likely return early next week."
