Summary
Weather Forecast
The weather man says an upslope storm will bring another 10-15 cm in the alpine East of the divide overnight into Sunday, with lesser amounts to the W. It is possible we may see higher amounts in the Banff region. Light SE winds and freezing levels to valley bottom will bring a refresh to the ski quality.
Snowpack Summary
6-12 cm low density snow in the last 24 hours E of the divide overlies previous isolated wind slabs and a rain crust from March 28th. The upper and mid pack are well settled. A mainly dormant basal depth hoar layer is still very prominent in much of the forecast area, especially East of the continental divide where snowpack depths are variable.
Avalanche Summary
No avalanche activity reported today.
Confidence
Forecast snowfall amounts are uncertain on Sunday
