Appreciate the NOW.
Rick Pitino is spot on. Every player’s hourglass runs out faster than they think.
One day, the practices, the games, the grind - it’s all gone.
Cherish every rep, every moment, every opportunity.

**Major series of Powerful Arctic storms including a cold Atmospheric River to bring Flooding&Blizzard Conditions for mountain Communities **
Our storm yesterday is well off to our east after dropping about .50z1" of rain across most the region except our rain shadowed deserts . Nice today and Friday with highs within 5 degrees of normal. A weak inside sliding trough will swing through the area Saturday bringing clouds and winds and a few rain and snow shimmers in our mountains but nothing significant.
All eyes turn to the long awaited series of Strong Alaskan storns that will bring months worth of rain and l Iow elevation snow over a 10 day period starting Sunday evening when the 1st and likely wettest storm of the Series and msybe the wettest if season in a few areas. A powerful cold front will tap into ample subtropical moisture off shore bringing a slow moving strong but cold! Atmospheric River through the region during the day Monday. Flooding rains, strong winds and Severe Thubderstorms look possible Mobday With the Arctlic low itself this time dropping south on a direct course into SoCal allowing snow levels for the 1st time this winter to be between 5009-6000ft during the AR which will result in blizzard conditions for our mountain communities. Snow levels will rapidly fall to 3000ft by Tuesday morning as the Low itself moves overhead with some acculating snow likely in our high Deserts and the highest foothill communities of the IE.
Right now current thinking is 2-4"+ of rain west of the mountains through Tuesday night, with 1-3ft+ of Snow in our mountains above 5500ft with several inches between 3000-5000ft.
Additional impulses/storns are set to follow as the northern jet stream literally sits right over California blowing north to south. Set ups like this bring a lot if snow to the Sierras snd this time our local mountains. Overall look for persistent showers all of next week with stronger impulses at times. The region coukd easily see another 2-4" of rain on top of our 1st storm with 1-4ft+ in our mountains . Big Bear Resorts could very easily end up with 3-6ft+ of smow by the weekend with 10ft on our Peaks! , bringing seasonal totals up to normal after months of most rain and mild temperatures. Will be the best weekend for Snowboarding this winter is make plans and plan for Chain requirements and winter driving conditions.
This upcoming week will be a very complex forecast and we will see just about every type if weather but the timing of each storm will be tricky so stay updated! I would not be surprised if snow fell at 2000ft at times later this week bringing snow flakes to many IE communities. Once this storm series wraps up most the region will be 150-200% of normal for rainfall and with a usually Wet March ahead of us we could very easily challenge all time season rainfall records, all from a winter that was labeld with "La Nina" and for SoCal to see drought conditions by all the experts (except this one ). A perfect example of how local Ocean conditions have a bigger affect of our weather then water temperature down off South America.

@jason61987 Jason - You’re hitting about .700, not bad. In baseball, you’d be making millions. Keep up the good work. I love how you walk out on the plank earlier than the rest, thank you….

“Yes, I do. Yes, I really do. I believe that.”

“No, not a one. However, the radio still works, funny as that may seem.”
