Kernpunkte

The avalanche danger should remain LOW for all elevations and aspects today. As new snow and wind arrive over the forecast area tonight and tomorrow the avalanche danger may increase.

    Lows near freezing and partly cloudy skies last night should have allowed the wet snow that formed yesterday to refreeze in most places. Some areas where thicker cloud cover existed during the night may have experienced a weaker refreeze. Last night's refreeze combined today's cloudy skies, increased winds, and slightly cooler daytime highs should prevent significant wet snow from forming today.

    As new snow and wind impact the forecast area tonight and tomorrow, expect the avalanche danger to change with new winds slabs becoming a possible problem tomorrow depending on the amount of snow that the forecast area receives.

Avalanche Discussion

Yesterday on Elephant's Back a few inches of soft corn snow had formed on east aspects by noon. This soft wet surface snow rested on top of a strong and supportable melt-freeze crust. Most of the northerly aspects remained frozen during the day yesterday in the Elephant's Back area, and the SE-S-SW-W aspects held mostly exposed ground with a few isolated patches of snow. Observations and ski cuts did not reveal any signs of loose wet snow instabilities through 2 pm.
