Friday, February 17, 2006

Big Bear Mountain Weather Forecast: "--TOMORROW THROUGH 6 DAYS - Saturday - After partly cloudy skies in the morning, clouds increase in the afternoon to mostly cloudy. Scattered snow showers are expected by afternoon with very cold temperatures. Snow levels will be near 3,000 feet or lower in spots, with snow accumulation decent considering this season. The limiting factors seem to be moisture and a not as southerly flow as we would like to see. The system itself looks strong, and as a cold front moves through late Saturday, snow continues...through Sunday morning.

Sunday and Monday - The strong closed low near the northern California coast slides east and away after some snow Sunday morning, with clearing expected Sunday after the early morning hours, and through Monday. Temperatures remain pretty cold"
