Topline:
San Bernardino County fire officials have closed Mount Baldy Road until further notice because of debris blocking the road to the Mount Baldy Resort. The resort’s Twitter account
reported
“multiple life threatening avalanches” below the parking lot in the Movie Slope area.
Dangerous conditions: Heavy snowfall over the last week has left roads impassable. San Bernardino County residents have been under a state of emergency since Monday evening, as the rush of snow from the winter storm has left some people in mountain communities stranded or even snowed in.
More snow coming: Another storm is expected to land in Big Bear tonight, dumping between one and two feet of snow. Snow has already impeded people in other parts of Southern California. On Monday, Orange County
schoolchildren stranded at mountain camps
were transported home by bus, days after they were supposed to return.
