Weather Forecast

  Colder temperatures and up to 25 cm over the weekend is expected with this next system.  Winds will be light from the East. Cool temperatures with overcast skies will prevail into the middle of next week.

Snowpack Summary

Early morning rainfall has contributed to the weight and melting of the snowpack. A cooling trend tonight with freezing temperatures will build a crust that will add to the stability of the snowpack. Steady light snowfalls may bring up to 25 cm of snow through the weekend.

Avalanche Summary

A size 3 wet snow avalanche released in the middle of the night and temporarily closed Hwy 93 around the Icefields area on Friday morning.  Also, a loose snow size 2 avalanche crossed the Maligne Lake road which was closed at the time.  The Maligne Lake road will remain closed through the weekend.

Confidence

Forecast snowfall amounts are uncertain on Saturday
