In sintesi

The avalanche danger is MODERATE on all aspects at the mid and upper elevations today. New snow and wind has increased the avalanche danger and small human triggered avalanches are possible. Watch for any natural avalanches and cracking within the new snow. Collapsing or "whoomping" of the snowpack is also a sign of danger. If you are seeing any of this, stay on lower angle slopes.

    The new snow and wind may have created some areas where a person could trigger a small avalanche. I actually don't think this storm is going to increase the avalanche danger all that much but you should use caution if you are going out into the mountains today. My biggest concern is that areas with a shallow weak snowpack (less than 3 feet deep) will get overloaded with new snow and create a deeper avalanche. However, I don't think this storm is going to be enough to do it.

Snow and Weather

Current Conditions: The Skyline has picked up about 5 inches of snow overnight. Temperatures have plummeted more than 35 degrees since yesterday and most mountain locations are around 10˚F. The wind has switched around to the northwest and is in the moderate speed category.

Mountain Weather: We should see snow continue this morning and linger into tonight with another 3 to 6 inches possible. Northwest wind will be a little breezy today. Temperatures are going to remain cold for the next few days.
