Hmmmm....filming and driving? <g>
I remember seeing snow in the Berkeley hills back in '75, but didn't drive
up to it. Those summit pics remind me of driving the Miata through the
Tillamook State Forest to get to Portland. It was mostly just rain except
for several white (pun-intended) knuckle miles.
Thanks for sharing.
Pete

Wow, snow in San Jose. Amazing.
We used to take the Roadster skiing up to Tahoe all the time when I was a
kid. Strap the skis to the luggage rack and head up the mountain. I still
have the tire chains Dad used to have to put on when the passes were bad.

Subject: [Roadsters] Snow recon in the roadster : San Jose!
You've probably seen the news that it snowed in San Jose recently. It's
snowed maybe 2-3 times in my lifetime here, maybe a few flakes or dusting at
the most. Last week Mt. Hamilton got several feet of snow and I really got
excited. Despite road closures I took a chance and headed up in the
roadster. The peak is about 25miles from my home.

The road up is 130 heading to Livermore/Patterson and it is super twisty.
Low-speed stuff, but fun.

My heart's racing as I spot little bits of ice/snow roadside. We just don't
get this kind of weather here. It usually requires a 5-15hr drive to Tahoe
to see snow! Sure enough, the snowpack becomes real!

There's the peak (it is also Lick Observatory), covered!

At the summit, it was extremely icy.
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_4013.jpg
I was shocked.
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_4021.jpg
Drove down the mountain thinking I MUST take my family back to play in the
snow, no matter what!
http://www.zcarblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/IMG_4084.jpg
Took the family back just before sunset and it started snowing! Kids loved
it. Mission accomplished. Roadster reconnaissance achieved.
