Site Owner/Forecaster, Michael Mojarro webmaster@socalweather.net January 24th, 2012, 3pm: Was a nice afternoon today with temperatures a bit below normal in most area. Some offshore winds have developed and winds could gust through tomorrow morning in the 35-55mph range in favored areas. Yesterdays storm did about as expected with amounts right where they were foretasted in the final morning update. The exception was the San Bernardino mountains where snow levels were higher due to some sun in the afternoon which limited accumulations of snow there, although higher amounts likely occurred above 8000 feet. Snowfall amounts ranged from 4-7" in the L.A mountains above 6k, then only about 1-3" in the San Bernardinos above 6500 feet. In the Riverside mountains, Pine Cove came in with a report of 3-5", with amounts likely higher then that above the 7000 foot level. Rain totals were highly variable but overall between about .25-.75 across all of So cal with lowest amounts in eastern portions of the I.E. Look for high pressure to dominate our weather tomorrow through early next week with warm, sunny and above normal conditions and some offshore wins from time to time. Highs overall in the 70s and lower 80s each day west of the mountains, with 50s and 60s in the mountains, although pushes of offshore flow and cold air advection may bring a cooler day here and there in the mountains through the period. Lows in the upper 30s and 40s west of the mountains and 10s and 20s in the mountains. Long range does have some hints of another pattern change late next week, but it too far ahead to say anything about. 
 Trail Conditions For elevations above 7500 feet as of 1/13/12. Snow pack is still present in both the SJW and SGW, especially on the north facing slopes. Snow pack is patchy down to 7000 feet, and still relatively solid above 8000 feet. Overall the depth ranges between 1-3 feet in the SGW depending on your location, with only about 8"-16" in the SJW. This snow has been icy during the morning and evening due to the thawing and re freezing process, so crampons are a must. Water sources are all good. Overall snow pack is near or a bit below normal for early January, our area usually sees most its snow from late January through the end of March.
