Nowcast-
High pressure dominates our weather this morning, with clear skies and temperatures in the teens to low 20's. Southerly winds blow 10-20 mph along the high peaks. Our Thanksgiving storm helped freshen things up a bit, delivering 4" of light density white paint, but with overall snow depths just below two feet, it's still pretty thin out there.
Forecast-
Look for mostly sunny skies with temperatures climbing into the mid 30's. Clouds increase and southwest winds bump into 30's late in the day.
Futurecast-
A fast moving cold front slides through the region late tonight into Tuesday, bringing cooler temperatures and a few scattered snow flakes. Another similar looking storm impacts our zone late Wednesday.
Ted was in the Gold Hill area yesterday and found similar snow structure and coverage to what I saw near Wolf Creek on Friday. The snowpack is thin and travel limited to grassy slopes and road rides. Ted's insight and take on North Slope conditions is found
