Felt it here in Riverside.

LYTLE CREEK: Earthquake reported at 10:55AM northwest of Lytle Creek. 4.1 magnitude per USGS. No reports of damage or calls for service related to the incident. ^eas

This is the eastbound side of the ten freeway. Caltrans District 8 is working to remove mud over a portion of it. But if you are heading towards #PalmSprings or in that direction turn around and find a nice spot to hangout until this backup clears.

Traffic is now moving along westbound lanes of the 10 Freeway. It appears four lanes are open with mud on highway scraped clear as much as possible.

A LOT of drivers stuck in the westbound lanes of I-10 near Cathedral City. On my drive in going east one lane was one allowing westbound traffic through now nothing it moving. We are at a standstill hoping Caltrans District 8 will get things moving before our bladders do.

I had so much fun reporting on the Shark Tank and learning about all the new products, ideas and inventions. sandiablochurro

Both Hwys 18/330 remain closed to residents and travelers as emergency snow removal operations continue in the San Bernardino Mtns. CHP Arrowhead & Caltrans District 8 have no nee updates on when escorts will resume for residents.

If you planned on visiting our local mountains for fun this weekend, please reconsider your plans. The National Forest Service has issued an EMERGENCY CLOSURE ORDER. Access restricted to residents & emergency crews ONLY. Crews are working around the clock. fs.usda.gov/sbnf

Update: 3/2/23 7PM, Unfortunately as alluded to in our previous post in reference to the escorts, we have had to stop operations as it has been deemed a safety concern at this time with our partnering agencies. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you know where your meter is and can safely remove snow around the meter, do so. Be careful not to damage the meter as you remove snow. Gently clear snow away by hand or broom. Don’t use a shovel or other sharp tools.

If you smell gas, call 911 or SoCalGas at 800-427-2200

Finally! Mountain residents lining up for escort up Hwy 330. Both HWY 18/330 will be open to residents only from 5-9pm. CHP will escort up to 20 vehicles at a time. Best to carry chains. I have no information from Caltrans District 8 about R2/3 conditions.

#Caltrans8 crews did a phenomenal job clearing roads. BIG news, we will resume escorts on SR-18 & 330 tonight from 5-9PM. There is the potential of slides through the area, so they could be suspended if safety comes into play. Caltrans HQ CalSTA California Governor California Governor's Office of Emergency Services

Numerous local, SBCounty and State agencies continue to work around the clock working on snow plowing, road/infrastructure improvements & answering emergency calls.

Goodness I’m going to need more layers.

It’s snowing in #Yucaipa and I’m not talking light snow either. The elevation here is between 2,000 and 3,000 feet. Kids here are getting a rare snow day off of school.
