Spring is here with strong sun and warm temperatures, and the meltdown continues. This morning, the snow surface will once again only be superficially refrozen by radiation heat loss, and it'll soften up earlier today than yesterday.
It's 34°F at the 8400' Tony Grove Snotel, and there is 98 inches of total snow containing 121% of normal snow water equivalent (SWE). On Logan Peak, winds are blowing from the west-southwest around 20 mph, and it's 30° F at 9700' in elevation.
At the new Paris Peak weather station at 9500', it's 29°F, and the wind is from the southwest, blowing 15 mph. I'm reading 33° F at the new Card Canyon weather station at 8800', with 84" of total snow.
Today, high temperatures at around 8500' in elevation will rise to around 42° F. It will be much warmer at lower elevations and vary depending on your location in the vast Logan Zone. Light winds will blow from the west at 9 to 15 mph. Hopefully, tonight, mountain temperatures will drop a little below freezing.
Tomorrow will be a few degrees cooler in the mountains, with 8500' high temperatures around 40° F, and it'll be breezy, with increasing winds from the west blowing 15 to 22 mph.
Mountain temperatures will hopefully drop below freezing on Thursday night. Snow showers are possible on Friday, with little accumulation expected.
Snow is likely on Saturday, and it could be heavy at times, with 3 to 7 inches of accumulation possible.
