The National Weather Service Forecasts-

TODAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY. HIGHS AROUND 38. NORTHEAST WIND 10 MPH.

TONIGHT...MOSTLY CLOUDY. LOWS AROUND 28. LIGHT WINDS.

FRIDAY...MOSTLY CLOUDY. HIGHS AROUND 37. NORTHEAST WIND 10 MPH IN THE MORNING BECOMING LIGHT AND VARIABLE.

Conditions continue to remain clear and cool.

Yesterdays temp remained cool and below -3 at both Eaglecrest and Mt Roberts.

Light winds today should slow down the transport of snow that has been occuring.

We have seen almost no precip in the last week.

The snowpack has had lots of time to settle out and bond.

Avalanche danger is LOW at this time.

Watch for windloaded pockets on SW facing slopes today after our most recent windloading event.

Point release avalanche remain possible during todays diurnal fluctuation with sun in the forecast.

Thane Road at Snow Slide Creek continues to have a large overhanging cornice that could become the trigger for an avalanche should it release. Cross Bay saw large avalanches over 10 days ago on both the left and right sides. The center section remains quite filled in. It is safe to assume that it also has a weak layer deeper down in the snowpack. Yesterday that path saw some windloading which adds to the questionability of stability in that path.

Mt Juneau's upper starting zones also are quite filled in and have not seen avalanche activity this season. It is also safe to assume they too have deeper weak layers present and got windloaded yesterday.

Danger in these paths may be closer to moderate with the possibility of natural avalanches. Yet with not much wind today, cool temps, and no precip I am keeping the danger levels to LOW overall.

Enjoy a sunny safe day!
