Back then, front lawns in Burbank had a dusting of snow and some cars were covered with it.

A blizzard warning has been issued for Southern California mountains, the first such alert issued since 1989. The warning is scheduled to take effect at 4 a.m. Friday and will last until 4 p.m. Saturday.

Snow is expected to fall as low as 1,000 to 1,500 feet, meaning areas like Santa Clarita and lower-lying areas of the Inland Empire will see a rare coat of powder.
