Clear and sunny, potential inversion?

A ridge of high pressure is building over the south coast mountains. Good weather is expected for the next week or so.

Alpine Forecast
Saturday night and Sunday:

An upper ridge remains over the coast bringing dry conditions and light NW and N winds and skies with few to scattered cloud cover. Freezing levels should rise to 900 m. in the afternoon and temperatures dropping to -8 at night.

Monday: The ridge remains anchored across the South coast but cloud cover will thicken somewhat in the northern part of the region due to a system passing over the Northwest coast. Winds should remain light and temperatures becoming relatively mild in the afternoon.

Tuesday: We could see a bit of an inversion with freezing levels reaching 1300 m. in the afternoon and temperatures warming up to 0 C in the alpine. No precipitation is expected, winds remaining light.
