Clear, Cold, and Breezy

 TL;DR:

One last burst of snow late this weekend, then a period of dryness that will last through next week. 


Nowcast: 

It will be cold, clear, and breezy today with highs in the mid teens and wind speeds between 7 and 15 mph. It will be sunny today with only a few clouds passing over throughout the day. The powder should still be good in places that art too skied off. 



Short Term:

It will be clear and cold for the next couple of days. Sunday there will be a new system that moves in that will only dump between 2 and 6 inches. It will be cloudy after Sunday but there wont be much if any snowfall early next week. There will be low upper level moisture through next week witch is not conducive for snowfall. 

Long Term:

there is little indication of inclement weather in the next week and a half. We are going to have a small break from storms for the foreseeable future, but that doesn't mean the season is over yet. It will remain cold which should keep some powder around on terrain that is not skied too much. 

Backcountry Comments:

The UAC has moved the avalanche danger to moderate on higher elevation and to low on lower elevations. If you are traveling in the backcountry remember to bring the proper equipment and be prepared for anything. For a more detailed backcountry report visit our friends at the Utah Avalanche Center.
