The National Weather Service Forecasts-

Today- Scattered snow showers becoming numerous in the afternoon. Snow accumulation around 1 inch. Highs 32 to 36. southeast wind 10 mph.

Tonight- Numerous snow showers. Snow accumulation around 1 inch. Lows 25 to 31. Southeast wind 10 mph.

Saturday- Mostly cloudy. Scattered snow showers. Isolated rain showers in the afternoon. Highs around 35. North wind 10 mph

We have seen several days of cooling now after several days of rains to summit. This has really solidified and stabilized the snowpack in place for the most part.

This morning temps are up a touch from yesterday. Eaglecrest is 30 at the base and 25f on summit with 14mph winds gusting 16 currently. Mt Roberts is 29f winds of 7 gusting to 10.

We have not seen any noticeable precipitation in the last few days.

With very little snow in the forecast and a very stable base at below freezing temperatures avalanche danger is LOW today and will remain mostly LOW into tomorrow.
