Chiemgau Alps East

Early in the morning, the snow surfaces are hard, sometimes icy: danger of slipping and falling.

The avalanche risk is low. Wet snow is the problem. In extremely steep terrain, wet loose snow avalanches and on steep slopes with smooth ground, wet gliding avalanches can release themselves. Wet avalanches usually remain small, in areas with sufficient snow avalanches can occasionally reach medium size.

With reduced outgoing longwave radiation, the snow surface does not freeze through everywhere. It softens again in the morning with the sunlight. The snowpack is completely soaked up to high altitudes. The southern sides are gradually thawing right up to the summits.

The avalanche danger remains low.
