Snow may affect travel by accumulating on the 5 Freeway in the Grapevine and on the 15 Freeway in the Cajon Pass.
The latest winter storm on Sunday, Jan. 29, prompted the National Weather Service to alert motorists to snowy and potentially hazardous travel conditions in the mountains of San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties.
Rain moved into the area Sunday morning and by 3:30 p.m. had dropped amounts in Riverside County valleys ranging from .16 inch in Beaumont to .07 in Temecula. In San Bernardino County, .08 was measured at Cal State San Bernardino and .04 in Ontario. The NWS said .12 was measured on Santiago Peak in the Santa Ana Mountains. In the Santa Fe Dam area of LA County, .09 was measured.
“Travel could be very difficult,” the NWS warned, noting snow levels were expected around 5,000 feet Sunday, 4,500 feet on Monday morning and down to 3,000 feet early Tuesday. Light snow accumulations were expected on the 15 Freeway in the Cajon Pass. To the north, advisories were issued for LA, Ventura and Santa Barbara county mountains and the Antelope Valley.
