An unseasonably cold low-pressure system will move through the area this evening, bringing mostly cloudy skies and scattered light showers. Colder and windy with temperatures in the 40s, though temperatures will drop as westerly winds gust 10-20 mph at times. Lingering moisture could bring a few snow showers to the mountains tonight, tapering off overnight as low pressure exits the region. We could also see the snow level dip to around 7,000 feet overnight, with a few flurries possible around Big Bear, but accumulations, if any, will remain light. As this trough exits the region, high pressure will build over the Great Basin, generating gusty offshore winds and gradually warmer temperatures through the weekend.
