(CNN) -- A few days are still left in summer, but folks in the Sierra Nevada Mountains got an early taste of winter weather.
A cold front swept through the range in California and Nevada on Monday, leaving snow in higher elevations.
The California Department of Transportation urged drivers to be careful and shared pictures showing foggy and slick conditions.
The snow didn't last long, but that didn't stop some people from getting excited.
