Snow Capped San Gabriel Mountains
In this El Niño year, the snow levels dropped to below 5000 feet in the San Gabriels, normally not seen with snow on the southern slopes. Damsel took this image (cropped to make a panorama) after the rain passed the other day. Lingering clouds can be seen topping some of the peaks. Click on the image to see the full-sized panoramic image - don’t forget to use the scroller to see the whole image.

Shhhhh, it’s Global Warming
Reminds me of that song:
You have to be Cold to Hot in the right measure.

We were on the campus of Ascension Lutheran Church along Silver Spur in Rancho Palos Verdes. There is always a nice view of the South Bay from there. The mountains were a bonus on that day since the haze was thin enough to see them.
The old “cold = AGW” crap always works its way into the news, don’t it?
