The National Weather Service Forecasts-

Today- Cloudy early then becoming partly cloudy in the morning. Flurries early. Highs around 35. Light winds.

Tonight- Partly cloudy. Lows 22 to 27. Light winds.

Friday- Partly cloudy. Highs around 36. Northeast wind 10 mph in the morning becoming light and variable

We have seen 8 days of sun and calm after several days of rains to our local summits.

The snowpack is quite stable at this time. Avalanche Danger is LOW today.

With less than 1\" new snow,calm winds and no significant wind or precipitation in the forecast the avalanche danger will remain low...

Temps should remain the same over the next 24 hours and winds should remain light limiting windloading.

Always be looking for glide cracks and areas of glide to know when instability increases to this hazard in regions. If you see glide cracks simply avoid those areas.

Currently temps are 25f at Eaglecrest base, 22f mid mountain and 21f on summit. Its currently 24f at the Tram Summit. Up 3f from yesterday. Winds are calm.

Have a great day.
