In sintesi
Today there is a LOW avalanche danger where natural and human triggered avalanches are unlikely except in isolated areas or extreme terrain. The big news is that we are looking at a weather pattern change and a chance of snow later this week, which could mean changing avalanche conditions.
Recent Activity
Reports from backcountry travelers all mentioned a weakening snow surface of mixed crusts and faceted snow. D. DeBruin had a great observation of the snow surface in the backcountry terrain near Snowbasin. Read all the Observations HERE.
Snow and Weather
Under clear skies temperatures are in the 20's °F. Winds are blowing lightly at all mountain locations this morning. There was no new snow reported overnight and snow heights range from 1-3' with isolated areas holding close to 4' of snow. For today, winds will blow lightly from the south-southeast 5 gusting to 10 MPH. Skies will be mostly sunny, with temperatures 32-35 °F. No new snow is expected today.
Our partners at the National Weather Service all agree we should see a pattern change starting late Wednesday into Thursday evening with a chance of 1-3" of snow followed by a stronger storm for early next week. Read the forecaster discussion from the National Weather Service HERE.
