Snow Characteristics Comments

A remnant few inches of snow from last week's storm remains on some west to north to east facing slopes in the upper elevations bands. This snow - up to and likely well above - 10,300' - is wet and soggy. Any dry snow is limited to the absolute highest elevations and may see rain tonight and tomorrow.
