Advisory: Uintas Area Mountains | Issued by Craig Gordon for Friday - March 17, 2017 - 3:30am |
---|
current conditions Skies cleared last night allowing temperatures to dip into the low to mid 30's. Westerly winds are a nuisance along the high ridges, blowing in the 30's. Riding and turning conditions are aspect and elevation dependent. Corn curious? I thought you were and here's the scoop. Upper elevation sunny slopes are still a bit immature and slightly punchy, but the corn harvest is in full swing on low and mid elevation south facing terrain. On the north half of the compass, it's hit or miss, though you'll still find patches of dense, "hot" powder on wind sheltered, upper elevation slopes. Real time wind, snow, and temperatures for the Uinta's are found here
Wow... the Uinta's are white and the views... well they're stunning! Snowpack observations and trip reports are found here. |
recent activity No new avalanche activity to report from yesterday. A full list of Uinta avalanche activity is found here. |
weather The graphic below says it all... sunny skies with temperatures warming into the 50's. West and southwest winds diminish somewhat and blow in the 20's and 30's along the high peaks. Overnight lows dip into the 30's and Saturday should be quite a bit warmer. Weak systems passing mainly to our north bring a chance of rain and or snow showers at times Sunday through Monday along with slightly cooler temperatures. Whilst complex and a bit disorganized looking at the moment, a change in the weather pattern is on tap for Wednesday.
