The avalanche risk is Category 4 (High). AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR MON 14/3/94 Warmer conditions overnight will be followed by colder temperatures again tomorrow with further heavy snow and gale force winds. The snowpack will remain in an unstable condition, especially on easterly aspects, where avalanches will occur. The avalanche risk will remain at Category 4 (High). SUMMARY. The snowpack will remain in an unstable condition, especially on easterly aspects, where avalanches will occur. Category 4 (High).

Greatest accumulations are to be found on slopes with a N through to SE aspect and in all sheltered gullies and hollows. Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High). Avalanche debris observed in Buachaille Etive Mor gullies . AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR MON 14/3/94 Severe gale force Westerly winds and heavy snowfall with a period of heavy rain at all levels overnight turning back to snow during course of day. This will give further accumulations of unstable new snow mainly on N through to SE facing slopes above 700m and in all sheltered gullies and hollows. This will maintain Avalanche Risk Category 4 (High). Avalanches will occur in these areas. SUMMARY. Avalanches will occur due to accumulation of new snow above 700m in gullies and on N to SE slopes.Avalanche Risk will remain 4 (High) MMMM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CATCH AVALANCHE REPORTS 19040012, 19049913, 19040012, 19045900, 19039610, 19048415, 19081905, 19261809, TLX779537, TLX75291, TLX778693+ From the Scottish Avalanche Information Service Tel 0479 861264 NORTHERN CAIRNGORMS AVALANCHE RISK AT 1500 ON SUN 13/3/94 Hurricane force NW winds, in combination with strong local winds, have scoured slopes of many aspects down to hard snow/ice. However, accumulations of poorly stabilised windslab persist in some high, steep, sheltered areas of NE to SE facing slopes and gullies. Category 4 (High Localised) risk of avalanche. AVALANCHE RISK OUTLOOK FOR MON 14/3/94 The forecasted fluctuating temperatures are expected to bring some consolidation to deposits of recent windslab. Light to moderate snow showers on storm force WSW, later WNW, winds may result in the build up of some areas of only moderately stabilised windslab in sheltered places on steep slopes and gullies of a NE to SE aspect. Category 3 (Medium) risk of avalanche where accumulations of windslab are greatest. SUMMARY. Category 3 (Medium) risk of avalanche where the build up of new windslab is greatest on NE to SE facing slopes and gullies.
