❄️WINTER STORM WARNING❄️
Has been extended through 10:00 AM tomorrow, Saturday, Nov 22nd.

Low pressure remains stalled along the California coast and is slowly drifting eastward. This will result in wrap-around moisture across the San Bernardino Mountains through tonight, with snow showers expected to increase. Additional accumulations of 2-4 inches are likely, with isolated higher amounts near 6 inches possible.

If traveling, be prepared for winter weather driving conditions and always carry those chains!

I appreciate the answers on chains for Monday. We will have chains, if necessary, but appreciate the thoughts. The weather and road conditions are hard to predict. But those with experience have a good idea of the way it probably will be. Thank You and we will be ready one way or another.

Per Caltrans: All Chain Restrictions have been lifted in the San Bernardino Mountains, however, you must always carry chains when travelling to the mountains in the winter months. For the latest road conditions visit socalmountains.com/roads
