Those are fantastic photos the second one must be somewhere in Orange county, right? [it is beautiful
The lake in the second photo is in Mission Viejo, but Saddleback Mountain is in unincorporated Orange County just beyond the city limits.
LA County has mountains in the San Gabriels that are way taller though. Santiago Peak is OC's tallest and is a bit smaller than even Mt. Wilson. Our peak would only be the 15th tallest out of San Gabriel's peaks.
You guys mention places like California getting snow... At what elevation are you speaking of? Obviously snow will fall at higher elevations! Lets look at what areas in the U.S. gets snow that are under 2000' elevation... That would be more remarkable...
...And I'm letting you know that nothing you said changes anything, the Cascade Mountains of Washington get more snow than anywhere else in the country.
Ok you stated your point and what of it?, dont quote what i have to say just to start arguements.
FYI, Chicago gets less snow than the East Coast and is not much colder either.
"FYI" - I have been to both many times, and that is my opinion. Not to mention, I find far more Chicago transplants complain about the weather in the Windy City, than NYC transplants complain about their prior location.

*sigh*
that's NOT why Chicago is called the windy city!!!!! it's called that because back in the late 1800s they said Chicago Politicians "blow out a lot of wind" when they speak.
anyways.....any state can recieve snowfall even Florida, once a year some part of the Panhandle of Florida recieves some form of sleet/snow, etc.

....from what I hear they still do. Illinois seems to be corruption central, with a huge divide between upstate and downstate interests. It is really to bad....

Ya it reminds me of New Mexico,.. Corruption Central as well and the North gets more attention than the South part of the state.
Northeastern Minnesota, Northern Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan get a lot of snow, especially the UP. Basically dumped on by Lake effect snow.
Buffalo and Syracuse NY get Lake effect too.
I lived in Seattle for 7 years and laugh at the snow there. Everytime it snowed about 2 inches, the place would shut down. I think they have about 2 snowplows for the whole city! No one knows how to drive in the stuff and everyone has studs on their tires. Whatever.
