Did a quick tour east of Whitefish Mountain Resort, in the Skook Face areas, to monitor the developing storm.
This morning's snow won't hold much of a slab. And slabs look to be on the way, if temps warm and snowfall intensifies as forecast. If the snow continues to fall at very low densities, it will be easily blown about by the wind.
Pics to come.
5500 to 6800 ft.
Easily triggered loose dry snow sluffs in very steep terrain - > 38*. Most stayed on the surface, but able to get one to entrain snow in a steep chute. Debris so light it was hardly noticeable skiing through it. East and southwest aspects. Snow did not sluff or run far on slopes < 38*.
