Issued Zones:  Ventura, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside Mountains above 6,000 FT …

Site:  SouthernCaliforniaWeatherForce.com has issued a Blizzard Watch effective now for Tuesday …

Date:  1/4/16 at 7:45am PT

Forecast: An extremely powerful storm system will impact the region on Tuesday, starting in the morning for Ventura County and going through noon/evening into the rest of the forecast area. 

This system will have maximum snow levels of 7,000 FT, however as the middle of the front passes these would drop through 6,000 FT so my thinking is that it’ll start off as rain in many mountain city locations and then end as snow. 

A healthy 30-40 kt low level jet will solidify the gusty 40+ mph winds that will strike along the front … this, with heavy snowfall will bring blizzard conditions, meaning whiteout and the most dangerous to even be in …

Our blizzard warning comes with snow level/intensity/timing charts and these may change for the final product once issued.  If stronger lift is present, thundersnow may form. 

The amount of snowfall will vary from mountain range with a foot in VT … to 1-2 FT for the San Bernardino/Riverside Mountains … most likely 6-9″ for most Big Bear areas east lake and 15″ west lake to GVL  … Wrightwood currently in the 7-10″ range and higher in upper elevations with Baldy at 12-14″ … 

Use the charts below to plan …
