Reply to comment by invol713 in TIL the worst snowstorm in the history of Los Angeles occurred in 1949 when up to two feet of snow covered the city for three days as it reached its lowest temperature ever recorded, 28 degrees Fahrenheit by SappyGilmore

They're like 305' (ft.)elevation. With that kind of elevation I would never expect it to get really cold. I'm in Vegas and we're like 2kft and our lows are about 20-30F. I always think of LA as way warmer in winter and I know I'm not even living in a cold area. It's the summer that will get you in LA, well not me, but all you snow bird types.

Metro Buffalo sits at about 600'. Around Christmas I had snowdrifts over my 6' fence.

I live in a town that's approximately sea level. We routinely get below zero temps in the winter.
