Snowpack

Morning observation: Steady snow with 22" new and 1.49" of water in the past 24 hours and snow pack up to 84" deep (winters deepest so far 85"). Moderate snowfall continues with steady but light wind and occasional gusting. An obscured cloud cover with mild temperatures holding in the low to mid 20's overnight. New snow sits on a very hard crust layer (except maybe north slopes above treeline) but with the quantity in a short time surface sliding is possible. --Make the evil go away. I give up.
