Winter has arrived and human triggered avalanches are possible. This avalanche was triggered today at upper elevations in the Central Wasatch.

Hikers, hunters, runners and backcountry users alike, heads-up as we have shifted seasons and winter hazards are upon us.

[Utah Weather Center @UofUWeather]

!!ALERT!! Our first snow of the fall here on campus is looking more and more likely for Sunday. While it is still only a possibility of snow on the benches, it is more of a guarantee for significant snow in the upper elevations! (Alta on right) #uofu #utwx

Both our GEFS and EPS downscaled have a mean QPF of 1.2" for Snowbird by 00z 10/24. In English, model ensembles currently averaging about 12-18" of snow for the high Wasatch on Sat-Sun. We will continue to watch the trends.

I’ll update the forecast again tomorrow morning with full details, but it’s increasingly likely we will have chances for snow next weekend (and beyond?).

[Avalanche Institute @avyinstitute]

Jackson Hole & the Tetons are known for the largest backcountry ski terrain in the lower 48! Take an AAI course in Jackson this winter to get equipped with tools to make sound decisions as you explore these exceptional mountains! https://t.co/6LrUgoEPAR #jacksonwyoming #wyoming

HEY BOZEMAN PEEPS! Are you an aspiring ski guide or apprentice looking to level up in your avalanche safety knowledge? Our Pro 1 course located in Bozeman, MT is the perfect opportunity for you to sharpen those skills. https://t.co/fdKhNZd7Ma #avycourse #bozeman #avalanchesafety

[Utah Daily Snow @WasatchSnow]

The good news? The latest GFS shows a lot of snow in the west. The bad news? It’s almost entirely outside of 10 days which means confidence in this actually happening is very low. However, we have seen a consistent pattern shift in the models for the last 10 days of October. 🤞
