Advisory: Logan Area Mountains | Issued by Toby Weed for Monday - February 29, 2016 - 6:28am |
---|
current conditions The Tony Grove Snotel at 8400' reports 30 degrees this morning, and there's 71 inches of total snow now containing 94% of average water for the date. It's 23 degrees at the 9700' CSI Logan Peak weather station, showing 15 mph west winds. It's getting harder to find areas with soft recrystallized snow and the "pow" seems limmitted to sheltered north facing terrain. I found pretty good smooth fast spring-like riding conditions yesterday afternoon in the sun on slopes with a softened surface on otherwise supportable snow. Veiws from the Mendon Area on 2-28-16 of recent cornice-fall activity on east facing slopes in the Wellsville Range. |

weather Snow showers are likely in the mountains this morning and we can expect mostly cloudy conditions with a high at 8500' around 34 degrees. It'll be breezy, with 20 to 25 mph west winds on the ridges. Less than an inch of accumulation is expected. It'll be partly cloudy tonight, with a low around 19 degrees and a gradually decreasing northwest wind. It'll be partly sunny tomorrow, with high temperature around 38 degrees. The next round of unsettled weather is expected Tuesday night and Wednesday, with snow showers but again little in the way of accumulation. High pressure conditions will then build and remain over the region for the remainder of the week.
