Another frontal system will work its way south into our area today with clouds and winds increasing this morning. Snow showers should develop over the next couple of hours, continuing into this evening. Cold and windy with highs in the upper 20s to lower 30s, west winds increasing 15-30 mph with gusts over 40 mph possible, making for treacherous traveling conditions once again, be safe & carry those chains. The snow level could dip as low as 3,000 feet with accumulations of 4-8 inches possible. Snow showers will taper off tonight into Friday morning as low pressure finally exits the region. This will lead to weak ridging over the weekend for drier conditions and a return to near-normal temperatures, a perfect bluebird weekend! Another storm is currently forecast to arrive Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. Unfortunately, this system will likely tap into an atmospheric river, which could make for higher snow levels. Of course, this is still a ways out and a lot can change, so be sure to check back often for updates. If you have travel plans this week in the mountains, be prepared for dangerous, winter weather driving conditions, and always carry tire chains! R2 restrictions remain in effect on all mountain roads at this time. For the most up-to-date chain restriction information, check socalmountains.com (click here)
