The Northwest Weather and Avalanche Center has posted a warning about avalanche conditions.

Recent rain and snow has made storm slab avalanches possible, especially in the central and south Cascades.

If you’re heading out to play in the snow this weekend, check the report and be aware of the snowpack. If in doubt, go find somewhere else to play.
