A fast-moving winter storm blasted through the San Bernardino Mountains on Sunday evening, March 3, 2025, bringing a dramatic shift in weather conditions.
The storm began around 4:30 p.m. after a day of dark, cold, and gloomy skies, with heavy hail suddenly covering the ground in a thick white blanket. Within 20 minutes, the hail transitioned into graupel, a soft, pellet-shaped snow that mimics hail but is much lighter.
As the storm intensified, quiet lightning flickered through the sky, marking the first thundersnow event in the area in two years. The heaviest snowfall lasted approximately four hours, reaching even the lowest elevations of Crestline, including Crest Forest and Valley of Enchantment.
With chain controls in place at the 4,000-foot level on Highway 18, road conditions quickly deteriorated. Reports of vehicles spinning out, getting stuck, or crashing began within 30 minutes of the snowfall. As of midnight, California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers were still working to assist stranded drivers while CalTrans and county crews cleared the roads ahead of the Monday morning commute.
