Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! The upper level ridge continues to influence weather today with copious amounts of sunshine the high looks to be 51F with lite Southeast winds with occasional gusts into the low 20’s. Beautiful weather with warm conditions as the weekend arrives with a few degrees of cooling come Monday as the dirty ridge bring an ever so slight chance of snowfall on Monday. Some slight chances of snow over the next few weeks may occur but they will be small events in the 1-6″ range as the MJO is not able to work it’s magic. Coverage is great out on the hill so get out and ski/ride and enjoy the Pure Mtn Fun ethos! Stay tuned……..
