SAN DIEGO
The siren song of snow drew so many San Diegans to the East County mountains Tuesday that traffic backups led officials to close Interstate 8 exits to the road into Mount Laguna.
“According to one officer on the scene it’s about a 4-hour wait to get up the mountain with gridlocked traffic,” the California Highway Patrol’s Border Communications Center tweeted.
