Hey Good People! A White Christmas Bringing Another Foot of Snow to Bear Valley! ~ Mattly Trent
Posted by: thepinetree on 12/24/2018 11:45 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! Christmas eve is here and you should be too! A trace of new snow overnight will give way to 4-8″ of new snowfall today. With temps around 38F for the high and SSW winds from 8-17mph with gusts into the 20’s. Tonight we’ll see another 8-12″ fall as the cold air behind the initial front will help with bigger snowfall totals. Christmas day will bring snow showers as the front presses through then clearing until the weekend which has a possible system moving through but still too far out to have any solid numbers. Grab your Family and Friends and head on up to Bear Valley for some great times as we have the best conditions we’ve seen in some time. Hwy 4 is the easiest access to any resort on the Western Slope! As always we’re about “Pure Mtn Fun”.

Hey Good People!! A Beautiful Blue Bird Day Awaits in Bear Valley! ~ Mattly Trent
Posted by: thepinetree on 12/19/2018 10:42 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! A peak high of 52F for the week will be on tap for the day with sunny skies and winds out of the ENE up to 8 mph. An upper level high pressure ridge over the west coast will bring dry conditions to the forecast area through today and this evening. By Thursday morning a weak Pacific frontal band is forecast to move into northern California possibly dropping 1-2″ of snow by Friday morning below pass levels. The upper ridge will build again before next weeks storms make their way to Bear Valley. There are differences at this time(when are there not) with the models for next weeks storms so check back in over the next few days as I’ll have that pinned down a lil’ better. The bonus at this time is the possible snowfall slated for Christmas Eve………………..I’ll leave it at that for now. The Christmas Holidays are upon us so grab your Family and Friends and head on up to Bear Valley for some Great times. As always we’re about “Pure Mtn Fun”.
