No change in avalanche conditions and the danger remains MODERATE. Human triggered avalanches remain possible on steep, wind drifted slopes primarily at upper elevations. A triggered wind slab also has the potential to step down into a buried, persistent weak layer causing a deeper and more dangerous avalanche. You are most likely to encounter a persistent weak layer on steep, shady, northerly facing slopes. Most low elevation and south-facing terrain have LOW danger.
