Norbert Weiland anticipated family members would visit Southern California from his native Chicago. To ensure they had a place to stay, he built what he called the Balboa Court Apartments at 10715–10727 Balboa Boulevard. Members of the family did come and eventually settled in and around Granada Hills. (Courtesy Dave Weiland.)

No doubt the Weiland’s Chicago relatives would have had second thoughts about moving to Granada Hills if they had arrived on January 9, 1949, when Southern California experienced a rare snowfall that lasted for three days.
