Expires: 02/16/24 at 0559hrs

Rating:

LEVEL 1: UNRESTRICTED

Avalanche Forecast:

Avalanche activity above the road IS POSSIBLE. Resulting avalanche debris reaching the road grade is NOT EXPECTED.

Travel Advisory:

None for the time frame listed above.

Weather and Snowpack Summary:

During the previous 72 hours the JC Road corridor has received only trace amounts of new snow and temperatures for the most part have remained below freezing. While there is generally still a poor structure to the snowpack the recent conditions have allowed the snowpack to slowly consolidate and gain strength.

This week will bring a return to an active weather pattern with snow returning this afternoon and continuing through the week.

Gusty southwest winds will move into the area on Wednesday February 14th as snowfall rates begin to increase during that time. Expect the highest snowfall amounts to occur through the day on Thursday February 15th.
