Moderate
- We have a good understanding of the snowpack structure and confidence in the weather forecast.
- We are uncertain due to a limited number of field observations.
Avalanche Summary
No avalanches have been reported since Saturday, observations are very limited on the island right now.
Snowpack Summary
A thin crust may exist early in the morning but it will break down quickly. The snow below is likely wet.
The remainder of the snowpack is strong and settled.
At low elevations the snowpack is disappearing quickly. Where snow remains it is isothermal.
