Blizzard Warning In Hawaii

Yes, that is right -- you read this headline correctly.


Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea above 8,000 feet have been under a blizzard warning for the past several hours with temperatures in the 20s and moderate to heavy snow from passing squalls.

Down at the lower elevations, heavy rain has been falling on the big island of Hawaii -- prompting flash flood warnings.

A new storm is about to sweep into southern California with some much needed rain. As the storm moves east it will draw down some cold air and produce winter precipitation in the middle of the nation this weekend.
