Weather

The last few days mild weather promoted snow stability. Conditions are now getting busy. Models suggest 3 inches of water tonight through Tuesday. Temperatures and precipitation look to peak Sunday. Expect a foot of snow down to sea level this weekend and up to 3 feet in the upper mountains by midweek. Winds will load western aspects. The hazard may increase.
