Alpago - Cansiglio

The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. In some localities 5 to 15 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1700 m. The new snow and wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 1900 m. In very isolated cases the avalanches can be triggered in deep layers of the snowpack and reach medium size.

The weather conditions will facilitate a gradual weakening of the snowpack as the day progresses. On very steep slopes individual moist snow slides and avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small, especially at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects in high Alpine regions and in gullies and bowls in all altitude zones. Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are mostly small. These are to be avoided in particular in very steep terrain.
