Kernpunkte

New snow comes with rising freezing levels, be cautious where snow is seeing rain for the first time.

At lower elevations, any snow that exists will likely be rain-soaked and isothermal.

    If dry snow exists at upper elevations, storm slabs will be reactive to rider triggering.

    New snow overnight will become rain-soaked through the day. This overlays a previous crust from earlier in the week.

Confidence

Moderate

  • We are uncertain if precipitation will fall as rain or snow.

Avalanche Summary

No recent avalanche activity has been reported.

If you head out, please consider posting your observations to the Mountain Information Network.

Snowpack Summary

Up to 25 cm of new snow may fall by the end of day at higher elevations. This lands on a recent melt-freeze crust on solar aspects and at treeline and below.

The mid and lower snowpack are generally strong and well-bonded.

Typical treeline snow depths range from 100 to 150 cm, and thins quickly below treeline, especially on south-facing slopes.
