I must be a wuss - all of these look very serious to me - just not big on 90+ cm on a weak interface. Perhaps I need a silly serious rating to differentiate
easy and very easy shears with resistant fractures or breaks? A bit odd.
Most difficult to forecast: natural cycle tapering off, but skier triggering is likely.
30 to 60 cm is where SH tends to be triggerable. Unlikely to see no test scores and no fracture character with this scenario. Natural signs weak.
Unlikely scenario. 60 cm HST with wind will produce shears. Slabbing will be fast with warming.
Very large recent additional load.
Bad combination of temp and rain.
Unlikely scenario. 30 to 60 cm HN with wind will produce test scores and fracture character.
This is not really a storm slab problem, but a deep slab problem with recent loading.
This is a deep slab problem.
That's a funky one too, on one hand I have hard windslabs, on the other hand no signs of recent wind transport, go figure
Curious how a dense wind slab over a weak interface has no test results.
once again, curious about the stability test scores.
There are a lot of typically contradictory observations here.
I am discounting the wind as far as storm slabs go, but would watch for wind slabs in open areas
it may change from loose dry to a slab with the radiation
the loose snow may settle into a slab with the warming. No slab yet.
rain on recent HST with Na already happening,
all looks good except that there's new avalanches and it's raining
loose dry snow yet widespread signs of recent wind transport
no result or no test completed?
once again no slab no avalanche

I rarely dig, but if I had dug and found these results they would feature as strong contributors. But in reality, I had all the info I needed to rate as VS
I would certainly have tried to get an opinion of shear possibility and quality in this case, if only by jumping on rolls, hand tests, ski cutting etc.
30 - 60 cm HN and wind transport producing a layer 10-30 cm thick? I am going with the 30-60 cm + wind
How can it be raining
Unlikely to see RP or B fracture character in this scenario.
Rapid deterioration with rain.
Could upgrade most criteria to "by itself" to highlight severity.
Loose dry snow has not yet settled into a slab
Contradiction, Dense wind slabs and isolated signs of wind transport?
contradiction below freezing temps and rain
Bit of an odd one if it started raining over the last three hours how is the layer dry and loose
By dry loose snow I am assuming no slab properties...
despite a surface crust "dry loose snow" would indicate no slab...
