Hey Good People!! Santa is on the Slopes & Pure Mountain Fun Awaits at Bear Valley!!
Posted by: thepinetree on 12/24/2021 10:46 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! Mattly’s weather forecast for Thursday morning. 6″ of new snow has fallen overnight and continues to fall as I write. The forecasts vs. actual is being tested the last 48hrs. Warm air continues to play its hand in keeping the snow elevations a bit higher than suggested. So roughly we have been seeing the lower end of the forecast totals in the last 36hrs but it’s dumping non the less and there are smiles across the miles. Today we could see up to 11″ during the day and another 5-9″ tonight if the cooler air mass plays its hand correctly.
