Los Angeles got a lot of snow thanks to El Niño, and these pictures prove it

Skiers and snowboarders rejoice! After two days of El Niño storms, the San Gabriel Mountains are covered in a blanket of freshly fallen snow. The National Weather Service reported Mountain High received up to 28 inches of snow and others have reported 30 inches of snowfall in Big Bear—and there's more storms to come this week. We put together some of our favorite photos from the web that prove winter in LA definitely exists, and also comes with snow!
