A [surprisingly] calm Coire an t-Sneachda
25th January 2024
Despite the very strong winds, it was remarkably calm in Coire an t-Sneachda today. The snowpack firmed up overnight at higher elevations making travel somewhat easier than past. A return to winter once again tomorrow with snow expected down to lower elevations. Advance warning: there is some uncertainty about the snowfall amounts tomorrow, not just in the Northern Cairngorms but all 6 SAIS areas. This could affect the avalanche hazard.
A return to icy paths and puddles first thing this morning, softening as the day went on.
