Torridon

Forecast Snow Stability: Unstable windslab will continue to be deposited in wind sheltered areas. Greatest accumulations will be on East through South to Westerly aspects above 700m, where avalanches are likely. Gullies, ridge flanks, coire rims and head walls will be most affected. At lower elevations localised deep unstable windslab deposits will also be present on sheltered slopes, especially on steep banks and along burn lines. Northerly facing slopes will be mostly scoured. The avalanche hazard will be Considerable

Forecast Weather Influences: Winds will be strong to very strong Northerly overnight, backing and easing to moderate Westerly during the morning. It will remain freezing at most levels. Snow showers are expected to continue throughout the period, most frequent and heaviest overnight and during the morning. Observed Weather Influences: It was a freezing at most levels, with snow showers at all levels throughout the day. Winds were strong Northerly. ObservedSnowStability: Unstable windslab continues to develop in wind sheltered areas. Greatest accumulations are on East through South to Westerly aspects above 700m. Gullies, ridge flanks, coire rims and head walls are most affected. Cornices are forming in places above these aspects. At lower elevations deep, localised windslab deposits lie on sheltered slopes, especially on steep banks and along burn lines. The avalanche hazard is Considerable.
