Lebec, Frazier Park and Pine Mountain (Saturday, Feb. 27, 2010, 6:20 a.m.)—The Grapevine is open. High winds and precipitation during the night have left less than one inch of wet snow at 6000 feet in Pine Mountain Club and deeper snow at the higher elevations. Roads are clear and snow is soft throughout the Mountain Communities region. It is likely to melt off quickly. If temperatures suddenly drop it could get icy. Please drive cautiously.
