Near Cordova

Quick report

Good natural avalanche cycle over the previous 48 hrs during/around peak intensity of storm. Up to size 2.5 observed. Storm slabs occurred on all aspects and some of the larger avalanches were likely loaded by wind. HSt 60-70cm from an estimated 90cm storm total. Warm temps likely assisted in rapid settlement. Surprisingly warm temperatures close to the coast (+4deg C at 2000 ft, 10am 3/1) contributed to moist snow surface and roller balling/WL activity. Aspects with any north tilt were still held cold, dry snow.
