Way back in 1949, Angelenos experienced not 1, not 2, but 4 consecutive days of snowfall❄️
For four consecutive days in 1949, snow fell in Los Angeles. From Jan. 9 through Jan. 12, much of Southern California received measurable snowfall.
Jan. 10, 1949: Snow falls on Santa Barbara Avenue near Crenshaw Boulevard in South Los Angeles. In 1983, Santa Barbara Avenue was renamed Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Angelenos were forced to exchange their shorts and coconut oil for bulky jackets and gloves as flatland suburbanites scraped ice off windshields and downtown workers cursed the city's hilly terrain.
Snowball fights were fun and harmless, until three teenage boys began throwing snowballs at a streetcar stopped at Washington Boulevard and Hoover Street, breaking a window and injuring a woman passenger.
