Weather Forecast

The NW flow and ridge of high pressure will persist until Wednesday.  This will then be displaced by a westerly flow, bringing a coastal low and light precipitation. Tuesday: A mix of sun and cloud. Treeline temperatures Low -8C, High -2C. Ridge wind light NW. Freezing Level 1900m.

Snowpack Summary

The snowpack is isothermal at treeline and below on all aspects (and into the alpine on solar) - the upper snowpack in these areas has undergone multiple melt-freeze cycles, a strong crust in the morning will weaken with solar imput/daytime warming. On north facing alpine slopes up to 15cm of settled storm snow overlies previous old dry surfaces.
