Blowing dust is underway across portions of southeast Utah and southwest Colorado. We expect this plume of dust will expand as the winds remain gusty into the evening hours. Low visibility is possible in spots. #cowx#utwx
#CAICsmountains CON(3of5) You can trigger a dangerous avalanche that breaks under a cohesive layer of surface snow or much wider and larger, failing on weak layers deeper in the snowpack. Stick to low-angle slopes without steeper slopes above. https://t.co/E7yJWqyZwj
Rain and snow showers are ongoing this morning, and will continue through the day as this first system moves through. A break on Tuesday will be followed by another round Wednesday. Be sure to check https://t.co/76AayrCFH6 for forecast updates through the duration. #cowx#utwx
I am considerably more concerned regarding more widespread flood risk (& possibly wind damage in some spots as well) with new #AtmosphericRiver on Mon-Tue than with past Fri event. This will be more dynamic, as well as very moist. YouTube &/or blog update Sun/Mon. #CAwx#CAwater
#CAICcmountains HIGH(4of5) One to three feet of dense snow created very dangerous avalanche conditions that will last through Sunday. You can easily trigger dangerous avalanches and some will release spontaneously. Avoid traveling in avalanche terrain. https://t.co/E7yJWqyZwj
#Windy today with gusts up to 55 mph in some valleys and gusts up to 70 mph in some mountain areas. Light to moderate #snow will continue across the north with much colder temperatures and potential for snow #squalls. #COwx#UTwx
