GLOBAL WARMING IN LA

Snow falls in some parts of L.A. County

It was 33 degrees here when I got up at 6:00 AM this morning.

I've seen it even colder (in the high-20's) within the past year.

But, last night, Studio City (home to many Movie Stars, Rock Stars, Movie Producers and Porn Stars) got snow.

And, I'm not talking about cocaine.

From the LA Times:

Burbank, Glendale and Studio City were some of the areas that saw flakes of soft hail or snow pellets, according to weather reports. The precipitation was part of an unusual weather system that flowed south from Canada and dropped snow and rain across much of the state.

The snow level in L.A. County as of Saturday evening was about 1,700 feet, according to the National Weather Service. Earlier reports had forecast snow as low as 1,000 feet.

"It just started coming down as hail, and then there was this giant sheet of snow; it was awesome" said Matthew Currie Holmes, an actor from Burbank.

Holmes said the precipitation quickly formed a white layer over his lawn and car. Shortly after, his neighbors launched into a snowball fight outside his home, he said.

I built a snowman in the likeness of Al Gore in my yard. But, before I could snap a picture, he spontaneously combusted.
