Posted by: thepinetree on 12/21/2016 10:02 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! It's officially the 1st day of Winter!!!!!! Here we go...............with all of the current back and forth with the forecast models over the last 2 days they are finally coming into agreement and we are going to see some copious amounts of snowfall by Saturday morning but I'll get to that in a minute. Today the high will come in around 43F with ENE winds from 0-6mph. Thursday looks to be a repeat with a few degrees cooler then Friday things take a drastic turn for the better!!! I say better because it's gonna snow for Christmas!!!! Friday's arrival of snowfall will be sometime before noon and we could see 7-11" during the day and another 12-18" over night Friday. Saturday will squeak the remaining moisture out of that system with another 1-3" expected before that system makes it's way East and gives way to a beautiful sunny Christmas Sunday. Winds initially could gust up into the low 40's but by Saturday morning things should settle down as the system blows out East. We are open 7 days week with 100% of the Frontside open so come on up and enjoy our "Pure Mountain Fun" ethos!!!!!! Stay tuned..................

Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! After almost 4" of rain over 36hrs it cooled down at 4am this morning and we finally picked up 3" of new snow!!!!!!! As the system heads East it should squeak out a few more inches of snowfall this morning and through out the rest of today. Clearing tonight will give way to cooler temps so we'll ramp up the snow making again to supplement the natural snowfall and colder temps. It's going to be a beautiful weather weekend as we start 7days a week operations here at the ski area. The highs for Sat/Sun will come in right around 32F for both days with night time lows in the mid teens. Winds today will be out of the SSW from 10-24mph then shift to the ENE from 7-10mph on Sunday. High pressure returns and looks to effect the West coast/Sierra Nevada Range with sunshine all next week at least until Thursday. The recent heavy wet snow that fell has helped with some great base building so with the coming snow with it will help put us in the right direction for the coming Holidays. We are opening 7 days week starting Saturday Dec 17th . Come on up and enjoy our "Pure Mountain Fun" ethos!!!!!! Stay tuned........
