Snowball Fight Breaks Out In Manhattan Beach After Winter Storm Covers Sand In Hail, Ice

MANHATTAN BEACH (CBSLA) — Residents of Manhattan Beach woke up Friday morning to a fight they never expected to see on the sand — a snowball fight.

Waves of ice rolled down local streets and the normally brown sand turned white as hail piled up on the beach — enough for some folks to craft makeshift snowballs and take part in a snowball fight.
