Low avalanche danger

Low avalanche danger

Avalanche danger is low. The fresh snowdrift masses are too small and the snowpack too shallow for burying someone in snow. Heed the risks of taking a fall.

A bit of fresh snow and snowdrifts lie deposited atop a shallow old snowpack. The snow often fell on bare ground.

On Tuesday night, an additional 5 cm of fresh snow is expected. On Wednesday the snow showers will taper off, visibility will improve, a bit of sunshine is expected. Towards evening the snow showers will become more frequent. Winds will be mostly light. At 2000 m: -8 degrees; at 3000 m: -15 degrees.
