Conditions for the SoCal Big 3

Hey everyone! Just wondering if anyone has been up Baldy, San Gorgonio, or San Jacinto recently and can attest to the snow conditions (or lack thereof).

From my Ohio computer I looked at Big Bear Mtn. Appeared to have some snow near the ski lift but one of the summit knobs looked pretty suspect with regards to snow. San Gorgonio appeared to have coverage on the upper slopes on March 1 from a web cam.

From the summit of Timber Mountain (4.5 miles to the SE), Mt. Baldy was almost snow-free when I was there on Friday (3/20/15). Apparently there was a decent accumulation of snow 1-2 weeks ago, but the recent week of higher temperatures has melted off most of it. The backside of Cucamonga Peak had spots of snow/ice on the trail, so I would assume that conditions are similar on Baldy.
