North and center of Aran

The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information about the snowpack.

Wet and gliding avalanches as the day progresses.

All aspects high Alpine regions: Wet snow slides and avalanches are possible as the day progresses, even medium-sized ones. Avalanches can be released by people or triggered naturally. In addition an appreciable danger of gliding avalanches exists. In isolated cases they are large. Backcountry tours should be started and concluded very early. Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.

The weather will be partly cloudy. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will already soften in the late morning. Some rain will fall from the afternoon in some regions. The snowpack will be generally wet all the way through. Shady slopes, intermediate altitudes: Several small and medium-sized moist slab avalanches have been released last week. At intermediate and high altitudes a lot of snow is lying for the time of year.

Sunday: Slight increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches.
