Bay Area Weather

OettingerCroat · March 11th, 2006, 07:00 AM

Folks,

out here in San Ramon, 15 minutes from Oakland, between 6 and 8 pm on March 10th, we had some significant snow, considering it NEVER snows here! I've got some pics!!!!

more snow for tonight along with frigid temps!!! looks like it'll be here for at least another day!

No snow here, only rain and lighting. I guess that's what happens when you live 15 ft above sea level. Great pictures though. I heard it was snowing all over the Bay Area, even at San Francisco.

Fancy that, it must remind you of Zagraab. The world is having climate change, and here in Adelaide, South Australia we had 43c six days in a row.

The hills just behind Milpitas were covered in snow this morning.....

612bv3 · March 12th, 2006, 02:16 AM

I just saw in the news that there was a big pile up on Highway 101 yesterday, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge.

I meant on the valley floor. Of course theres snow on mount hamilton

OettingerCroat · March 12th, 2006, 07:27 AM

yes mt. hamilton probably still has snow on it.

and yes this is very freaky.

finally yes, there was a 31-car pile-up on a completely snow-covered US-101 in marin.

mr_storms · March 12th, 2006, 05:25 PM

in the santa cruz hills near my house

crazy......17 is supposedly closed at the summit due to the snow

OettingerCroat · March 12th, 2006, 06:24 PM

omg wow lol thats even crazier than over here

btw mt diablo still has snow on it, and more snow is coming down. really REALLY strange weather.

***Rhino*** · March 12th, 2006, 06:30 PM

wierd

smartlake · March 13th, 2006, 03:57 AM

Oh my effing ef, that is not snow, that is rain with ice shunks in it!!! Okay, maybe it is borderline snow, that is erm, cool for San Francisco, I guess. We have gotten twice that amount in July before!!! If you aren't used to driving in it, is can be a nuisance. The first snow of the winter-season is always hard to drive in.

weill · March 13th, 2006, 07:12 AM

Thats amazing.

Hey OettingerCroat,

When did you take those pictures? Are you from San Ramon?

edsg25 · March 25th, 2006, 02:09 PM

At times when Mt. Tam or Mt. Diabalo get a coating of snow on top, would you ever expect to see any in the city's highest elevations (but ones that are half the height of the peaks mentined above)...I'm thinking of Twin Peaks, Mt. Davidson, Mt. Sutro ???????

612bv3 · March 27th, 2006, 04:13 AM

I wouldn't expect snow at SF's tallest peaks even if there was snow in Mt. Diablo.

By the way, does anybody remember when it stopped raining in the Bay Area last year? It seems like it has been raining longer than usual.
