See above, As reported a week ago from similar elevations in LCC, this Persistent Slab Avalanche Problem exists as well at the Lower Elevations on at least NW, N and NE aspects. Storm forecast for next 36 hours appears to have been downgraded, yet if precip during this period hits 1 inch SWE, we may likely experience another Natural Avalanche Cycle even in these Lower Elevations.

Lower Elevations were definitely not experiencing the same High Velocity Winds that the Upper Elevations were over the past 36 hours, It appeared that the Upper Elevation Winds died down throughout the day on Sunday, and any lingering Wind Slabs may have begun to settle out and become less reactive by the end of the day; yet they are still suspect where they exist on buried weak snow on the upper half of the compass. In these specific areas the Danger most likely was Considerable today. Despite the widespread poor structure, and with no Naturals reported for over 48 hours, the Danger in other locations appeared to be High Consequence Moderate. If we hit the high end of the forecast for the next 36 hours,, the unusual E and ESE may contribute to elevating the Danger rating to a solid Considerable on all aspects at mid and upper elevations.
