Snow Reporter Comments: Last updated: Tuesday, February 10, 6:47AMAt Bear Mountain, BensWeather.com, our local meteorologist, is forecasting dry conditions through most of today, with temperatures cooling to around 50 degrees. Southwest winds will increase to 15–25 mph, with gusts potentially reaching 35 mph. A chance of showers develops tonight as a low-pressure system moves inland across Central and Southern California, with scattered showers continuing into Wednesday. Snow levels may drop to around 6,000 feet, bringing the potential for a light dusting, mainly above 7,000 feet. Wednesday looks cooler and windy, with daytime highs in the lower 40s and overnight lows falling into the upper 20s to low 30s. The system exits on Thursday, leading to decreasing clouds and showers, though cool and breezy conditions are expected to linger through the end of the week and into the weekend. Looking ahead, attention quickly turns to the next round of storms, which could be stronger and colder, with lower snow levels and the potential for more meaningful snowfall accumulations.Winter looks ready to return just in time for a big holiday stretch with President’s Weekend, Valentine’s Day, and Ski Week right around the corner.
