Jan. 25 marks seventh anniversary of Bakersfield's big snow day.
A family trudges along through the snow in front of a line of palm trees in Bakersfield on Jan. 25, 1999. Bakersfield got its first snowfall in at least 27 years, up to a half-foot that gave schoolchildren a rare chance to make snowmen but made travel difficult if not impossible that day.
