Valentine's Day Weekend

Summary:

Valentine’s Day weekend is upon us and we could not have nicer weather for a weekend packed full of events.  Highs around the Bay will be in the lower 70’s all weekend under sunny skies.  Up in Tahoe expect warm and dry conditions, more reminiscent of spring than February.  The beaches are in fantastic shape as well with sunshine, blue skies, offshore winds and warm days.

Hike and Bike Conditions Around the Bay:

This weekend is going to be brilliant and beautiful for Valentine’s Day.  We’re kicking off the weekend with a Flashlight Hike on Twin Peaks on Friday, a Pillow Fight and Bar Crawl on Valentine’s Day and a Sea Otter Kayak down in Moss Landing on Sunday.  The weather for all of these activities is going to be perfect.  Highs on Saturday and Sunday will be in the low 70’s with lows in the 50’s.  If you’re looking for some fun this weekend, join us for one or all of these events!

Around Tahoe:

There’s nothing to report from Tahoe with regards to snow.  Expect sunshine, blue skies and warm temperatures this weekend with highs in the low 60’s near lake level.  The resorts have been working hard on making snow and it looks like they’re still holding on.  Sugarbowl still has great coverage as of this morning:

Next week looks a bit cooler, but no storms are on the horizon.  Keep holding out hope for a Miracle March.

For more Tahoe snow details, check out the Tahoe Daily Snow and follow Tahoe Weather on Facebook.

Backcountry Conditions from the Sierra Avalanche Center:

LOW avy danger dominates the backcountry.  Be on the lookout for warm snow instabilities on slopes 37 degrees and steeper.  Check the full report for observations and details.

Surf Around the Region:  

I got out in the surf this morning at Lindamar in Pacifica and the surf was fantastic: waist the chest high peeling lefts.  Reports from Bolinas are looking equally positive with good swell and clean conditions.  Don’t forget that next weekend is the first event in our Learn to Surf Series in Pacifica.  A few slots are still open, so register now!
