Lo esencial

There is a MODERATE avalanche danger on the Manti Skyline today.

Continue to watch for overly wet, sloppy, punchy snow. If you find yourself punching deep into wet snow, avoid being on or below steep slopes where you could initiate an avalanche or one could catch you from above.

    Wet snow avalanches are your main concern today. It appears we are sliding through this significant warming period without the snowpack becoming completely unstable. There has been very little natural avalanche activity since the warm-up. Still, it is unwise to travel in steep terrain when the snow is overly wet and sloppy. If you are punching deep into the snowpack, this indicates it is unstable. Natural avalanches are possible at this point and you could initiate a wet avalanche also. Overall, things are not that dangerous but you should definitely use caution again today.

Special Announcement

The final reports for both avalanche fatalities that happened in March are complete:

One snowmobiler caught and killed in an avalanche in the Oquirrh Mountains.

Two skiers caught in an avalanche, one killed in the Uinta Mountains.

Recent Activity

I did not see any significant avalanche activity as I traveled around on Tuesday. As a matter of a fact, I would say things were very quiet.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions: Temperatures got well into the 50s on Tuesday and remained quite warm overnight with many stations hovering around 40˚F. Wind has been gradually increasing from the southwest over the last 24 hours. I'd call it moderate in speed.

Mountain Weather: Expect cloudy skies, warm temperatures and breezy southwest wind today. High temperatures will again be around 50˚F. The wind could get fairly strong. A minor storm event moves through on Thursday cooling temperatures and possibly bringing light snowfall with no real accumulation expected. There are no significant storms advertised for the next couple of weeks.
