I cant imagine there isnt some significant snowpack up there right now. The storm before the one that hit this past weekend came from the south and dropped significant rain in the area from Ensenada south to at least Catavina. Elevations in SoCal mtns for that storm were at about 8000 feet, even though it was a warm storm. I'll wager the peak got at least a foot of snow. Whatever fell at the observatory is probably gone, though.

This past storm (much colder but much less wet) may have gotten down that far, too.

Isnt there a website for Meling Ranch? They would probably know.

It seems, generally, that the southern latitude of the Sierra de San Pedro Martir keeps it from holding snow for too long?
