Current Conditions: The storm ended up producing an average of 15 inches of snow containing almost an inch and a half of water. The snow early on was dense then temperatures cooled the snowfall turned to cold dry powder. Temperatures are now in the low teens and single digits. The wind has been from the northwest overnight with steady moderate speeds which will no doubt have drifted the new snow and loaded it onto many slopes.
Mountain Weather: This storm is basically done. We might see some lingering flurries today but not much more accumulation is anticipated. It looks like clouds will hang around for the day. Temperatures will be cold with readings staying in the low teens or colder. It'll feel a bit breezy along the ridgetops with consistent moderate speed northwest wind. Another storm is shaping up for Monday which is advertising perhaps another foot of snow (possibly more?).
No avalanche activity was reported from Saturday although visibility was poor. I would be surprised if there were not natural avalanches releasing.
