Forecast Snow Stability: The old snowpack will remain wet but reasonably well stabilized, firming up near summits later. Some limited potential for minor full depth avalanches from snow laden ledges on the Post Face of Coire Ardair. Any remaining cornices will be wet and weak until onset of cooler temps. Some thin inconsequential wind drifted snow possible late in the day on North-East to East aspects above 1000m. The avalanche hazard will be Low.

Forecast Weather Influences: Mild and wet until later in the day when there will be a few snow showers. Colder later. Strong West-South-West winds. Observed Weather Influences: Generally mild though with cooler summit temperatures during the day. Strong West-North-West winds. Rain showers turned to snow over summits later. ObservedSnowStability: Good stability in most locations. Minor glide cracks have opened up on a few steep North to East aspects above 850m. Trace of new snow over summits otherwise a thawing and well bonded snowpack. The avalanche hazard is Low.
