Rare Snow Experienced in the Conejo Valley on Thursday, February 21, 2019
/A rare appearance of snow was enjoyed in many sections of the Conejo Valley yesterday, fed very cold temperatures and a storm that migrated here from Canada. There were reports of brief snow encounters by folks in Agoura Hills, Thousand Oaks, Westlake Village, Newbury Park, Calabasas and other cities, including Malibu!
At my home, there was rain, there was sleet, and then there was snow. The snow appeared briefly before melting away.
Snow appeared on the mountain like magic, just a couple hours ago (facing Newbury Park, from Westlake Village) #socalsnow ❄️✨❄️✨ pic.twitter.com/MBVuYeWwyb

According to the National Weather Services Forecast Office Los Angeles/Oxnard, “the last significant and widespread measurable snow in the Los Angeles and Ventura County valleys was on February 8, 1989, when up to five inches of snow fell in portions of the San Fernando Valley westward to Thousand Oaks and Simi Valley.”
It was a wonderful, memorable sight.
