New snow and wind slabs require caution.

New snow and wind slabs require caution.

New snow and wind slabs can sometimes be released, even by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes, as well as adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. As a consequence of new snow and wind the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent from the late morning. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

In some localities in some localities up to 15 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1000 m. The wind slabs are lying on weak layers. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
