Weather and Snow
Current Conditions: Warm temperatures continued on Tuesday with almost every slope at every elevation becoming damp. The execption is the highest due north facing steeper slopes where dense cold snow may remain. Overnight low temperatures were in the mid 20s.
Mountain Weather: A storm system to our south will push some moisture into our area today with clouds and the chance for snowfall. It looks like we'll only see a trace to a couple of inches. That said, this is the same type of storm has produced more snow than I anticipated during recent storm events. The rain/snow line will be between 7000 and 8000 feet.
