Ben's Weather Forecast Updated: Saturday, Dec 07 @ 05:48pm |
| Another soggy day out there today with areas of light rain and drizzle, though we've managed to squeeze out around a quarter to half inch of rain over the past 24 hrs, with nearly three quarters towards the west end of the valley. Scattered showers will continue through tonight as the snow level remains above about 8,000 feet. Cool and breezy with lows in the upper 30's, westerly winds to around 15mph at times. A weak frontal system will move through the area Sunday, keeping the wet weather around with showers as highs reach the lower to mid-40's, southwest winds gusting 10-20mph, snow level still around 8,000 feet. As low pressure exits the area Sunday night, we could see the snow level lower to around 7,000 feet. Keep this in mind if you're headed home as some of our higher mountain passes could experience that changeover to snow, such as over Onyx Summit up on hwy 38, a few inches are possible so carry your chains! High pressure really settles into the area through next week leading to fair and much warmer weather, a chance to dry out as highs in the 50's later in the week. At this time, no storms are on radar until possibly after next weekend, still a ways out, stay tuned! With winter weather here already,
don't forget to always carry tire chains
when traveling into the mountains and be prepared
for rapidly changing weather conditions. |
