How many types of snow have you seen? champagne powder of snow, fluffy hail pounding dusting - which one you prefer? Clouds swirl around El Capitan as snow blanketed Yosemite National Park on Feb. 22.

There are different types of snow and weather conditions in various locations as of today.

Firstly, it mentions "champagne powder of snow", which is a term used to describe snow that is dry, fluffy and powdery, typically found in areas with low humidity and cold temperatures. This type of snow is popular among skiers and snowboarders as it provides good conditions for skiing.

Secondly, it talks about "fluffy snow", which is another way of describing light, powdery snow that is easy to shovel and move around. This type of snow is often associated with cold, dry weather.

Moving on, the text mentions that "snow was already starting to fall in portions of the Antelope Valley", indicating that snowfall had begun in certain areas. This suggests that the temperature had dropped significantly, leading to the formation of snow.

In contrast to snow, the text also notes that "hail was pounding the pavement in Highland Park and Pasadena". Hail is formed when raindrops are carried high into the atmosphere by strong winds and freeze, creating small balls of ice. It can be dangerous to drive or walk in hailstorms as the hailstones can cause injury or damage.

Additionally, residents in La Crescenta reported a "dusting of snow", which suggests a light layer of snow that covered the ground. This could have been caused by a brief snowfall or by a light snow shower.

Finally, the text mentions "50-mph gusts" that were battering Thousand Oaks and Agoura. A gust is a sudden, brief increase in wind speed and can be caused by a weather front moving through an area or by localized temperature differences. Strong gusts can cause damage to buildings and vehicles and make it difficult to travel safely.
