Avalanche Forecast

Moderate - Timing, track, or intensity of incoming weather system is uncertain on Sunday

Unsettled weather and slightly warmer than seasonal temperatures for Sunday; a mix of sun and cloud for early next week. SUNDAY: Up to 15cm Saturday overnight into Sunday at higher elevations. Mainly cloudy with flurries possibly bringing an additional 5-10 cm during the day. Moderate southeasterly wind and freezing level around 1200m. Alpine high temperatures to -2 Celsius. MONDAY: Cloudy with sunny periods. Winds light northerly and freezing level around 1300m. TUESDAY: Cloudy with sunny periods. Winds light northwesterly and freezing level around 1000m.

No new observed.

At treeline elevations (1200m) and above, 20-35cm of heavy snow from Thursday-Friday sits on the rain-soaked snow from last week's warmup. This new snow is bonding well to the previous rain-soaked snow surface. At alpine elevations fresh wind slabs could be touchy, especially if we do get as much snow as some forecasts suggest (up to 25cm by Sunday afternoon). The cooling trend early next week is expected to stabilize the snowpack - locking up the moist snow at treeline and below. The mid and lower snowpack are well settled and stable.
