A couple of years ago, a CFI and Commercial student hit the hills in
similar
conditions although it was day time. Scud ran all the way from RHV along
? Hwy 101 below 500' in a Commander and then ran into the hills when
they tried to get through next to the reservoir near Hollister (heading
into the
valley).

Were they on an IFR clearance?


Couldn't be on one at 500'.
