Weather

Passes: Total new snow 4”-6” new on all passes. Flow yesterday initially favored the south side for snow accumulation, before veering to more northerly by the evening. A pulse of high precipitation intensity triggered a few small slides in the Gorge around 9-10 PM. The biggest slide in Mother Cline put 4’-20’ into the highway. Things quieted back down as snowfall diminished by midnight. Weather stations: (Many stations not reporting) Winds NNE/5-15. Temperatures in the single digits in the alpine zone. RH ~90 Unsettled weather and a chance of light snowfall continues today (favoring the north side/Gorge), though the bulk of the moisture has passed.
