Publié par : National Weather Service
Description


What: The Utah Avalanche Center is issuing a Special Avalanche Advisory for all mountain regions across Utah beginning Thursday, March 19 through Sunday, March 22, as avalanche danger is expected to rise in the coming days.
Where: The mountains of Utah and southeastern Idaho.
When: In effect from 6 AM MDT Thursday to 6 AM MDT Monday.
Impacts: Record-breaking warm temperatures will rapidly destabilize the snowpack across the state, increasing the likelihood of widespread, spontaneous, destructive wet avalanches. Wet avalances could occur on all aspects and at all elevations, including places that typically stay colder this time of year. Avoid travel on and below steep slopes, including runout zones and terrain traps.
