Snow in Hollywood and Beverly Hills: Rare but Documented

Hollywood

• 1922, 1949: Measurable snow (up to 12" in '49).
• 1932, 1949, 1962: LAX recorded snow (max 1.7" in '49).
• 1957: Dusting on Hollywood Hills.
• Feb 2019: Trace amounts during winter storm.

Beverly Hills

• Jan 1949: 1.5" accumulation.
• Dec 1962, Jan 1972: Trace/light snow.

Both share LA's Mediterranean climate—snow is a once-in-decades novelty. Recent decades: only traces. Elevation helps (Hollywood Hills > flatlands).
