Forecast Discussion
The low pressure system that brought light and low density snow to the higher summits yesterday continues to pull away to the northeast. High pressure is starting to build into the region and the summits have cleared from the clouds revealing a bright night sky. Low level moisture trapped in the valleys below a subsidence inversion will provide partial undercast conditions this morning but will erode through the day. The undercast will be most prevalent to the west as down slope winds dry the airmass on the east side of the mountain. A weak short wave trough passing to our north overnight may send a few high clouds our way and it looks like the summits will remain in the clear. This short wave trough is only a minor wiggle caught up in the nearly zonal flow. Overall it looks to be a bright and sunny weekend atop the higher summits. The only major concern will be the increase in wind speeds overnight and tomorrow. A weak cold front will push through the region tomorrow night which will be moisture starved. It will have virtually no impact on our weather except to increase wind speeds. After this a few quiet days will preclude our next winter storm slated for the Tuesday/Wednesday timeframe.
