California Mountains Buried in Snow After Latest Storm

A cold low pressure system brought rain and snow to California, adding to the already epic mountain snowpack. The Mammoth Mountain ski resort declared its snowiest season on record, with 695 inches of snowfall at its main lodge and 870 inches at the summit. The San Francisco Bay Area experienced gusty winds, hail, and heavy rain, while Southern California saw steady rain end by afternoon. The state's water content of the snowpack was 234% of the April 1 average, allowing for a rollback of some water-use restrictions.
