An unexpected cold front from the Gulf of Alaska brought snow to California and the Pacific Northwest, closing parts of Highway 89 through Lassen Volcanic National Park.

Bollywood Fever: An unusually cold weather system from the Gulf of Alaska disrupted summer along the West Coast on Saturday, bringing an unexpected blanket of snow to the mountains of California and the Pacific Northwest. 

This rare August snowfall prompted the closure of parts of Highway 89 through Lassen Volcanic National Park in California after approximately 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) of snow fell overnight, according to the National Weather Service.

Photos shared by the National Weather Service and local authorities showcased a wintry scene at high elevations, including Mount Rainier in Washington, where a thick layer of snow covered the peak, and Minaret Vista in California’s Sierra Nevada, southeast of Yosemite National Park, where a light dusting of snow surprised visitors.

Madera County Deputy Sheriff Larry Rich expressed surprise at the snowfall, stating it was “definitely unexpected” to see snow at Minaret Vista in August, a time usually reserved for warm summer weather.

This unseasonal weather event serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of nature, especially as the West Coast grapples with rapidly changing climate patterns. 

The snow brought a temporary pause to summer activities in these regions, offering a rare glimpse of winter in the midst of August.
