The National Weather Service Forecasts- TODAY...SNOW CHANGING TO RAIN IN THE LATE MORNING. SNOW ACCUMULATION UP TO 3 INCHES, HIGHEST AMOUNTS IN THE MENDENHALL VALLEY. SNOW LEVEL RISING ABOVE 1500 FEET IN THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS AROUND 39. EAST WIND INCREASING TO 10 TO 20 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON.

It looks as though we are going to see a gentle warming trend during the next 36 hours.

This warming trend will be accompanied by moderate transport winds and new snow.

Tonights danger is moderate with the heavy precip received today and expected into tomorrow.

This warming trend has the amility to create that upside down snowpack in the next 48 hours. Which is placing heavy wet snow on top of looser lighter snow.

If we see the large volumes of snow and the warming it creates concern as it is always questionable how much weight the snowpack can hold as more mass is accumulated on this week layer of cold, loose, unconsolidated snow.
