By 10am this morning (Fri 4/19) temperatures reached 50F under clear skies ☀️ up to 9,000’, and the snowpack did not freeze last night. Widespread natural wet avalanches occurred throughout the day, which involved recent new snow and many were large enough to bury a person. Above freezing temperatures tonight will keep the snowpack unfrozen and weak. Clouds and cooler temps tomorrow should minimize natural avalanche activity, but large wet slides will remain easy to trigger if the snowpack does not freeze. Be cautious of travel on and underneath steep slopes. More info at https://www.mtavalanche.com/forecast #gnfacobs #wetsnow #springobs

Warm temperatures and sunshine caused natural wet avalanches yesterday. Today will be similar, and without a freeze overnight wet slides might occur earlier and be larger. See today's snowpack and weather update for more details: https://www.mtavalanche.com/forecast/19/04/19
