It’s snowing in the high desert!  Lancaster, California can expect up to 6 inches of SNOW today, and perhaps up to 8 inches in the nearby foothills.  The story is similar across the high desert – even Barstow.  Barstow is expecting about 2 inches of snow.

High desert locales can expect highs in the 30s and lows in the 20s today.

So, enjoy the snow day while you can.  Tomorrow’s weather isn’t looking nearly as wet, and it will start warming up to about 50 degrees by Wednesday.
