MAUNA KEA, HAWAII — The summits of two famed Hawaii volcanoes, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa, were covered in a fresh coat of early December snow.

A winter storm warning has been put in place for parts of Hawaii that are over 8,000 feet in elevation, according to CBS affiliate KGMB. They could see 20-30 inches of snow by Saturday.

The heavy snowfall has caused several closings, including the road to the summits of Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa. Hiking and overnight camping is also prohibited throughout the snowy areas.
