You should be good to head up today. Check out bensweather.com for more detailed info

When should winds and rain hit? Daughter and kids headed up today and trying to leave ASAP, but do we know when winds and rains are predicted to start?

Due to expected weather, Bear Mountain and Snow Valley will be closed on Wednesday and Thursday and reopen on Friday ( weather permitting). Snow Summit will remain open.

Praying for you All in Big Bear. Stay safe.

As with any major weather event, I'm stocked up and stayin' home. It's good to be retired. 🙂

Lets keep our fingers crossed. With recent traffic history I am sure CalTrans expecting at least one idiot to close the front route for at least 6 hours plus potential mud slide there also. Increasing our odds of having a way out of dodge at least for the next 2 weeks or.........

Should we start a pool on when the 38 will be closed again. The rain will just flood it out again since it’s not done yet

MAGNITUDE 3 EARTHQUAKE. 9 KM SSW OF BIG BEAR LAKE, CA OCCURRED AT 12:32 AM (PST) (08:32:53 UTC). DEPTH = 8 km
