GLENCOE
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON WED 2/3/94
New moist snow has accumulated above 600m on all slopes with a N
aspect. Windslab has formed on SW through to NE facing slopes above
700m.Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High).


AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR THU 3/3/94.
New snow and strong W winds will deposit fresh accumulations of snow
mainly on E facing slopes above 600m. Sheltered hollows and gullies
will hold the greatest deposits of layered windslab with a high risk
of victim triggered avalanches. Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High).

SUMMARY
High avalanche risk on all slopes above 650m,where avalanches will
occur. Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High).

LOCHABER
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON WED 2/3/94
Large areas of unstable windslab are present mainly on E and S facing
slopes However localised wind effects have also formed areas of
unstable snow in sheltered locations. Avalanche activity observed in
Eastern corries of Aonach Mor. The avalanche risk is category 4
(High).

AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR THU 3/3/94
Overnight snow with SW winds will continue to load sheltered slopes
with unstable windslab. Greatest accumulations will be on N and E
aspects where avalanches will occur. The avalanche risk is expected
to remain at Category 4 (High).

SUMMARY.
SW winds will continue to load unstable windslab on to N and E facing
slopes, where avalanches will occur. Category 4 (High).

NORTHERN CAIRNGORMS
AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON WED 2/3/94
Accumulations of snow from recent storm cycle still shows signs of
instability particularly on steep sheltered N through to W facing
slopes and gullies. Strong W winds are presently re-distributing snow
onto slopes of an E aspect where cornice triggered avalanches have
been initiated. A Category 4 (High Localised) risk of avalanche
exists in all areas mentioned above.

AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR THU 3/3/94
Forecasted very strong SW winds and sleet turning to snow above 600m.
This will lead to a further build up of windslab on N to E facing
slopes and gullies where avalanches will occur, thus maintaining the
Category 4 (High Localised) risk of avalanche where any accumulations of
slab are significant.

SUMMARY.
Category 4 (High Localised) risk of avalanche on N to E facing slopes
and gullies, where avalanches will occur.
