East facing on Cloudburst, Avalanches from last week.

At 2280 meters as of 06:00 hrs the temperature was -1, winds were 10-20 KPH from the ESE. At 1550 meters the temperature was +1, 82 % relative humidity and the barometer is on a slight decline. In the valley it is +2.

The forecast keeps calling for rain and even though it appears that way during the day we have been dry.

The warming temperatures are releasing pillows of snow on steep, unsupported terrain, and tree bombs have also been falling. Report of a wet size 2 slide onto singing pass trail yesterday.
