SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - The weather is especially cold in the Bay Area this week; so cold in fact that snow blanketed Mount Hamilton, east of San Jose, parts of San Mateo County and Highway 17 in the Santa Cruz mountains. "It's rare that it snows," said Juan Carpio of Castroville. "It looks beautiful." Carpio had driven all night, but when he saw the snow on the Santa Cruz summit, he pulled over to take pictures to show his friends. Others came up to the summit to scrape snow off their cars and engage in a snowball fight.
