Spring Weather: Be Prepared for Big Bear Spring and What to Do During the Spring Weather

Spring weather is arriving in Big Bear, which means the sun is shining, the flowers are blooming, and the time has come to transition from adventurous winter sports and recreation to spring and summer fun. This is a beautiful time to visit as the days are warmer, but the heat of summer hasn’t set in. Everything is fresh and green, and after a long winter, it feels good to stretch your legs and take in that beautiful, sweet Big Bear air.

Big Bear Spring Weather

Spring weather is an in-between season. While the snow has likely melted and the sun is out more often than not, it can still be pretty chilly. Rain isn’t uncommon, either. It’s always a good idea to check out the extended forecast. The good part about the cooler weather is it’s a great time of year to get active before it gets hot. Hiking is beautiful this time of year, with the wildflowers blooming and everything fresh and green.

What To Pack

Layers are a rule of thumb here. On any given day, you could have cold temperatures, light rain, and highs in the 80s, so be prepared for all of it. Consider what activities you’ll be doing and how long you’ll be staying. It’s a good idea to pack some rain gear for unexpected showers. Base layers and a warm jacket are a good idea, but make sure you pack some warm-weather clothing, as well.

Don’t forget sunscreen, hiking shoes and something nice to wear for an evening out.
