Weather Forecast
There will be a slow increase in solar input and a general warming trend over the next week which is certainly the transition to a spring . On Friday winds will increase to strong in the alpine with a mix of sun and cloud and a few cm ending in the early AM. Every day will be slightly warmer on the weekend and rapidly rise starting Monday.
Snowpack Summary
15-30cm recent low density snow (higher amounts in western regions) over previously wind blown surfaces in the alpine, and 30-50cm of facets below. Lower elevations are completely faceted to ground. Steep areas continue to produce sluffing in many areas with buried suncrust on steep S aspects.
