Avalanche Forecast:

Avalanche activity above the road MAY OCCUR. Resulting avalanche debris reaching the road grade is POSSIBLE but NOT LIKELY.

Travel Advisory:

No vehicles stopping in the roadway corridor. It is recommended that any person operating equipment in the corridor wear an avalanche transceiver. Expect poor visibility along the roadway Wednesday evening due to gusty winds and blowing snow.

Weather and Snowpack Summary:

The weekend storm brought moderate amounts of new snow along with gusty winds to the JC Road corridor. Bitter cold temperatures have helped to settle the new snow; however the overall structure of the snowpack is still poor. Cold temperatures will be in place Monday before a warming trend begins Tuesday afternoon ahead of the next storm system. This system will be over the area through the day Thursday.
