Highlights
The snowpack is mostly stable. Dry snow avalanches are unlikely. The wet snow avalanche hazard will be low in the morning and will increase to moderate during the warmest portion of the day. Temperatures are inverted this morning. A warmer start at the higher elevations, a dry air mass and abundant sunshine will combine to soften snow surfaces. Shallow wet snow slides are possible on steep sunlit aspects. Cornice failures and roof slides are possible. Monitor conditions and avoid steep terrain after snow surfaces become wet.
Avalanche problems
Avalanche Discussion
Conditions will remain dry overnight. Temperatures will drop below freezing during the evening hours. A low pressure center will move into southern Nevada. Moisture associated with that system will bring some clouds to the region on Thursday. Daytime highs will rise into the 30s and 40s in the mountains and to near 50 in the valleys. Winds will be from the east and generally light with moderate gusts on the higher peaks.In all areas the wet snow avalanche hazard will be low in the early morning hours and rise to moderate after snow surfaces soften. In the Togwotee Pass and Greys River/Southwest Trails areas dangerous persistent slab avalanches with depths to six feet are a potential hazard in isolated areas. In these areas the general avalanche will be moderate all day.
