The warming event that has caused the unstable snowpack which is why they have issues this warning...

It's also because the weather is now gorgeous and it's spring break so loads more folks will be heading into the mountains.

Yes, ALL mountains!
Good time to hang out at the beach if you don't have the training to recognize and avoid avalanche terrain.
I think most training would discourage going out after this type of warning.
If you're not in avalanche terrain there is no risk of avalanches. There is a risk of it not being much fun to trudge through slushy wet snow.
