The past week in Anza has given the phrase ‘Cold as Ice’ new meaning. It has been a long time since it has been this cold in the valley at night and in the day as well.
For the first time in a long time, it snowed all the way down into Temecula and even Lake Elsinore, making the snow storm of Dec. 30, 2014, one for the record books.
All across the southland, even in SoCal beach cities, the night time temps have dipped down to freezing. The talk around town is that the morning after the snow, Dec. 31, it was 6 degrees outside.
The temperatures more recently have been between 16 and 21 degrees in the morning, depending on where in Anza Valley a person lives.
The local Hardware Store in Anza has been inundated with those needing to fix frozen and busted pipes. There are even reports of wells freezing in well houses overnight, leaving residents without water.
This extreme cold front came out of nowhere while we were enjoying a warm fall and according to NOAA the cold will be leaving this upcoming week.
By print time, warm temperatures should have returned. In some SoCal areas they may even reach into the low 80s by Friday. This is hard to believe as we bundle up for another cold night with the snow still lingering in the shadows and thick ice forming on the horse’s water trough.
