Eastern Carniche Alps

The wind will transport the loosely bonded old snow. Isolated mostly small dry slab avalanches are possible as a consequence of the sometimes moderate wind.

The wind will transport the loosely bonded old snow. Isolated mostly small dry slab avalanches are possible as a consequence of the sometimes moderate wind.

The wind slabs can be released, especially by large additional loads, in all aspects. This applies in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Decrease in danger of moist avalanches as the temperature drops. Individual gliding avalanches are possible.

Adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls rather small wind slabs formed. The weather conditions will give rise to increasing consolidation of the snowpack. As a consequence of rising temperatures and solar radiation a crust formed on the surface. This applies in particular on steep slopes below approximately 2200 m.
