Forecast Snow Stability: Localised areas of windslab will be present, mainly at the tops of steep East, South-East and South aspects above 950m, although distribution will be limited. Elsewhere, fresh snow will overlie bare ground and be generally stable. The avalanche hazard will be Low.
Forecast Weather Influences: Snow showers will continue overnight before clearing during Wednesday. North-West winds will become light. Observed Weather Influences: There have been some light snow showers during the period with moderate to strong North-Westerly winds over the summits. ObservedSnowStability: A covering of fresh snow exists on many aspects above 300m but this is mostly superficial and is lying over bare ground. Some deeper accumulations of windslab are present, mainly at the tops of steep South-East and South aspects above 950m but accumulations tend to be localised in nature. The avalanche hazard is Low.
