A generally favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

Wind slabs are in individual cases still prone to triggering on extremely steep north and east facing slopes at elevated altitudes. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. They are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. The small wind slabs are to be avoided in terrain where there is a danger of falling.

The mostly shallow wind slabs of the last few days are lying on soft layers on northwest to north to east facing aspects. They are in isolated cases prone to triggering at elevated altitudes. The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack on steep sunny slopes. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
