PINK BLIZZARD! Rare scene from Iowa last week. This unique phenomenon occurs when low-angle sunset rays filter through the atmosphere and reflect off falling snow and the ground. Looks like something out of Stranger Things! Credit: @tb11mom

Don't try this at home! Instead of a sleigh, this daredevil hitched a kneeboard onto the back of a pickup truck for a muddy ride on Bear Valley Road through the middle of Hesperia on Christmas Eve.

WRIGHTWOOD/DECEMBER STORMS INCIDENT EVENING UPDATE San Bernardino County Fire is devastated that many families are unable to be home together this Christmas due to the ongoing impacts of this incident. Our hearts are with everyone affected, and our crews remain committed to supporting the community during this difficult time. Throughout the night, more than 120 personnel will continue operations to assist residents who need help evacuating and to address ongoing life safety concerns. We are grateful to report that there has been one reported injury, minor in nature, involving a pediatric patient who was transported to a local hospital as a precaution. San Bernardino County Fire remains in unified command with the Los Angeles County Fire Department. The incident name was changed as the area affected expanded outside of the boundaries of Wrightwood and is now the “December Storms” Incident. SBCoFD would like to thank our cooperators for their continued support and unified efforts. The Care and Reception Center at Silverado High School is closed as of 7:30 p.m. A new shelter location has been established at the San Bernardino County Fairgrounds, located at 14800 Seventh St. in Victorville. This location is able to accommodate evacuees as well as pets and animals of all sizes. Once all immediate life safety issues have been mitigated, crews will begin transitioning to property preservation efforts where conditions allow. These efforts may include damming, diverting water, and salvaging property at affected structures. Fire crews will also continue to patrol the area to monitor conditions and report any changes to the Incident Commander. All current Evacuation and Shelter In Place Orders remain in effect. Residents are encouraged to continue to stay informed by signing up for the Telephone Emergency Notification System (TENS) and visit prepare.sbcounty.gov for incident updates. The next incident update will be provided tomorrow morning, unless there is a significant change in conditions.
