Highlights

Most terrain has generally LOW danger and mostly stable snow conditions exist. Low danger doesn't mean no danger and it may still be possible to trigger an avalanche in areas of extreme terrain. Carry appropriate rescue gear and continue to practice safe travel techniques.

Special Announcement

The UAC's Avy Awareness Auction is currently underway with tons of great gear, jewelry, artwork and experiences available. Visit the auction page here to help support the UAC's spring avalanche awareness and outreach efforts.

A new version of the UAC IOS application is now available on the Apple App Store. This version fixes many of the issues that occur when running IOS 13.

Snow and Weather

Satellite imagery shows mid/high-level clouds streaming in from the southwest this morning as moisture increases ahead of a closed low-pressure system currently off the California coast. Skies should remain mostly sunny today, with light to moderate SW winds and high temps in the mid 30's. Look for increasing clouds tomorrow as the storm moves into our area sometime in the afternoon. The main event should occur on Saturday night. 5"-9" are possible. Conditions again dry out for the upcoming week.
