Ben's Weather Forecast Updated: Monday, Mar 18 @ 07:28am |
| Enjoyed a gorgeous Spring-like weekend with some warmer weather at least, ironically for our last official weekend in winter, Spring also arrives this Wednesday but it will feel more like winter again out there! Expect nice conditions over the next couple of days with daytime highs in the lower to mid-50's both today and tomorrow, while overnight lows generally cool to the 20's. Southwest winds 5-15mph at times with a few afternoon clouds, but no thunderstorms are forecast, yet. Our newest storm, a low pressure system, will approach our area from the northwest later Tuesday bringing an increase in clouds and winds. As this low treks through the southland Wednesday into Thursday, expect scattered rain and snow showers, a few thunderstorms are also possible. The snow level will drop to around 6,000 feet on Wednesday, lowering further to near 5,000 feet by Thursday with 2-4 inches of snow possible, with locally up to a half a foot possible at resort level. We'll also experience gusty west winds 25-35mph at times and much cooler temperatures as highs drop back in the upper 30's to lower 40's. Showers will taper off sometime Thursday afternoon or evening with dry weather returning on Friday. Another storm will threaten us with more rain and snow over the weekend; cool and unsettled weather is likely to continue through the end of the month. When traveling to the mountains, always be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions, especially with more winter weather anticipated this week and always carry tire chains! |
