Forecast Addendum 1/25/2023 - 07:00am

Submitted by efalconer on Wed, 01/25/2023 - 5:36am
Recent Observations: 

Since Monday the 23rd, no signs of recent avalanche activity or instabilities have been observed. Findings from recent observations highlight deteriorating snow quality and sun crusts forming on southerly aspects below treeline. Minimal freezing temperatures overnight, combined with warm days and solar input, are saturating the upper surface of the snowpack below and near treeline.  On Mount Shasta, wind effected surfaces dominate the alpine terrain.      

Mountain Weather: 

As of 4am, the Mount Shasta city and the Gray Butte weather stations are reading temperatures near 40 degrees. West to northwest wind has averaged 9 mph with gusts to 50 mph. Valley fog and low patches of clouds will burn off by mid-day. Sunny, clear skies will persist with temperatures resting in the upper 30s. The next best chance for stormy weather looks to begin this weekend, as a low-pressure system encroaches from the north.
