Basically all of California is on, around, or surrounded by mountains so discounting that is just being arbitrary about what counts. Is California like the plains states? No, but it has snow, it has ice, and it has a lot of it and in more places than you think. The deserts even get snow and can be colder than anywhere.
Cold winter isnt when it snows sometimes. Its a type of climate. Which doesnt exist in california except at the tops of moutains.
I was in the Mojave desert last winter and it was 15° F not including wind-chill. Cherry picking some irrelevant map doesn't work. I know where I live, and certainly know it better than you and your terrible Google-Fu. I'm leaving this slap fight now. Enjoy your real winter ☃️ 💪
You did it; you confused weather for climate. Next, you can disprove global farming by watching it snow.
