At this point, I would be mindful of the avalanche risk from storm slab and wind slab avalanches, especially up high. After this week of stormy, cold weather, I would be less concerned about the wet avalanches you reference in your post. Multiple inches (or more) of fresh cold snow on top of melt/freeze crusts would be a red flag for me.
I spoke to a friend that skiied out of Rock Creek (Toms Place) yesterday and he got 6" of fresh snow over the course of the day. NWS predicted 2". I would bring skis or at least snowshoes to deal with the fresh snow.
I personally would not be anywhere in the Whitney Zone this weekend without full avalanche gear and the ability to correctly assess avy risk (i.e. formal avy training).
It's still 100% alpine mountaineering condition up there. FWIW, SAR will almost certainly not be flying helicopters this week, and may not send ground team if conditions are too risky.
