From the NWS:
Before the holiday weekend draws to a close,
The new snow should reach up to your nose-
Carried by winds and temperatures quite low,
Most will rejoice with the strength of the flow.
Yet all is not grand in the land of big drifts,
And unless youre careful weak layers youll miss-
Such layers may form during breaks in the storm,
Or deep in the snowpack weak facets may form.
While most snow will be fluffy and get in your face,
Use caution or else a slide youll embrace.
And it wont be soft and caress you like pow,
But may bury you deeply as your mind screams wow.
So enjoy the snowfall but still stay aware,
And do some testing of the layers out there.
Even a small test slope will help you realize,
That snowpack stability should not be a surprise.... |
