The incoming warm front will bring more snow and high winds to the forecast area. Forecats vary, but amounts could be upwards of 20cm. Watch for areas of locally high hazard due to snow amounts.

    Expect to find surface windslabs in open areas and below ridgelines. We can also expect buried windslabs to be down 20-30cm's in areas previously blown in.

Confidence

Good

Weather Forecast

Another pulse of snow is expected to roll into the area tomorrow afternoon. Flurries will leave almost 20cm by tomorrow night. As the front passes, the temps will rise slightly and the winds will pick up to extreme levels (upwards of 85km/r) and continue to come out of the SW.Later in the week things will settle down to a more predictable pattern.

Avalanche Summary

No new avalanches

Snowpack Summary

The snowpack received another small boost this morning with up to 6cm of new, low density snow. Intense wind transport in the alpine has blown many slopes completely clear of snow. As can be expected, some small cornices have formed and wind slabs will extend below ridge line. Treeline will now have windslabs in open areas. Little change below treeline aside from the increase in snow depth.
