Snow Shuts Down Major California Highway
LOS ANGELES - Heavy snow shut down a major highway north of Los Angeles on Monday and slowed post-holiday travel in the Sierra Nevada as Californians grappled with a second week of stormy weather.
About 2 feet of snow shut down Interstate 5 at Tejon Pass north of Los Angeles, stranding some travelers, and the California Highway Patrol said the state's main north-south highway was expected to stay closed there all day.
At lower elevations in the Los Angeles region, flooding closed the Long Beach Freeway at the Pacific Coast Highway.
Some ski resorts in the Lake Tahoe area reported as much as 9 feet of snow since late last week.
The latest storm is expected to linger through Tuesday, and another storm was approaching from the Pacific and expected to strike later this week.
