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.
