Hey Good People!! Your Pure Mountain Fun Awaits at Bear Valley!!
Posted by: thepinetree on 01/22/2022 10:44 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! We broke our all time December record for snowfall on Dec 29th at 8am with the new record being 161″. Mattly’s weather forecast for Saturday. As strong high pressure ridging off the West Coast of Oregon influences today’s forecast we’ll see a sunny day ahead with windy conditions in the a.m. hours before the winds decide to lessen as the afternoon approaches. 35F is the slated high for the day yet with wind values into the 50mph range this morning the temperature looks to dip into the single digits from wind chill. Some delays this morning with chair operations are possible and there is a possibility that the winds may disrupt lift service through out the day very similar to yesterday for the morning hours. Sunday things will settle back down as the surface gradients lessen and give way to a more mild type of sunny day during our Junuary phase of the season.
