First Alert Weather Alert: gusty conditions for Valentine’s Day
It's a First Alert Weather Alert Day. We're tracking a low-pressure system that's bringing strong west winds to the valley, along with snow to the surrounding higher elevations.
A High Wind Warning is in effect for the Coachella Valley and our surrounding mountain areas, including the San Gorgonio Pass near Banning.
In addition, there's a Winter Storm Warning for the mountains of San Bernardino, Riverside, and San Diego counties. The snow level could drop below 2,000' overnight, but accumulation in the higher elevations will still be limited.
Mountain snow and valley showers are possible into this evening as this quick-moving front blows through.
Get ready for a cold start Wednesday morning! A Freeze Warning will take effect at midnight for the Inland Empire, where temperatures will drop below freezing.
