Regions: Jasper.

The daily seasonal spring rhythm will be less pronounced over the next few days. Watch for isolated increasing hazard with prolonged solar effect.

Weather Forecast

A large, dry High pressure system is centered over the Rockies. A weak system, approaching from the North is forecast to bring light precipitation. Rain/snow showers are possible, more in front ranges east of the region but some isolated convection remains possible for Sunday afternoon. Freezing levels will continue to fall slowly until Tuesday.

Snowpack Summary

Upper snowpack at TL and below (and alpine solar aspects) have transitioned through a series of deep penetrating and, consistent melt freeze cycles. This seasonal spring rhythm will be less pronounced over the next few days. For now, surface instabilities like wet loose are possible but limited to immediate southern aspects.

Avalanche Problems

Loose Wet

Natural cycle of loose snow avalanches can be expected from steep solar slopes

Use extra caution on solar slopes or if the snow is moist or wet.Travel early before the heat of the day, minimize exposure to overhead avalanche terrain.

Aspects: South East, South, South West.

Elevations: All elevations.

Likelihood: Possible

Expected Size: 1 - 1.5
