Snow from El Nino Storm Closes 2 San Gabriel Mountains Roads

LA CAÑADA FLINTRIDGE - Because of snow at higher elevations, two mountain highways were closed Monday morning.

The "unplanned" road closures began at 7:30 a.m. "and will continue while snow and ice conditions persist," said Steven Frasher of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works.

The closed roads are: Angeles Forest Highway, between Aliso Canyon Road and Angeles Crest Highway/SR2; and Upper Big Tujunga Canyon Road, between Angeles Forest Highway and Angeles Crest.

Other roads could be closed due to current winter weather conditions, and more information is available at http://dpw.lacounty.gov/roadclosures.
