Well February left us with a kick in the pants. Many locations reported high wind gusts including: Fort Independence @ 66 mph, Oak Creek RAWS Station @ 80 mph, Jawbone Station @ 60 mph, Bishop @ 42 mph, Big Pine @ 55 and Lone Pine @ 26. Snow wise, Mammoth Mt. picked up 8 inches and June picked up 7 inches. All of this was do to a dynamic system pushing into and through our district. I expect unsettled weather today with continued gusty winds, but not quite to the level of yesterday. On Friday, high pressure re-asserts itself for tranquil weather through the weekend and into Monday.

FOR THE OWENS VALLEY:

Today: Partly cloudy thru the day and evening. Highs 51 – 56 and lows 30 – 35. Winds NW 10 – 20 mph.

Friday: Mostly sunny then mostly clear in the evening. Highs 52 – 57 and lows 31 – 36. Winds N 10 – 15 mph.

FOR THE TOWN OF MAMMOTH LAKES:

Today: 70% chance of snow showers becoming scattered this evening. Highs 28 and lows 8. Winds W 15 – 25 mph G 35.

Friday: Mostly sunny then mostly clear at night. Highs 37 and lows 17. Winds NE 5 – 10 mph.

FOR MONO COUNTY:
