Altitude weather delta
High 5,393 m minus low 3,337 m is 2,056 m of relief on this record. A standard tropospheric lapse of 6.5 °C per 1,000 m implies about 13.4 °C cooler at the high point than the valley, all else equal.
That is a model (International Standard Atmosphere environmental lapse), not a forecast and not a trail-closure. Wind, snow, and storms stay in Hazards.
