Winter conditions swept into California over the Halloween weekend, delivering mountain snow, highway closures and rain along the coastal areas. Chain controls remained in place along Highway 88 as of Sunday afternoon, spanning from east of Ham’s Station to five miles west of Picketts Junction due to accumulating snow and icy corridors, KCRA reported. Snow showers first began blanketing higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada Saturday morning.
