Low avalanche danger, isolated avalanche prone locations on shady slopes!
The avalanche risk is low. In extremely steep gullies and on shady slopes above the tree line, the triggering of small slab avalanches cannot be completely ruled out. Fresh pillows of wind drifted snow can be triggered as small avalanches behind ridges.
In the last 24 hours, fresh wind slab snow (approx. 10 to 15 cm) has been deposited on a crusted can form old snowpack. Angular shapes weaken the snow layering.
The rain and snowfall will subside before midnight and it will become partly soft in the second half of the night. On Monday, there will still be some residual clouds in the morning, with fog often lingering in the valleys. During the day, increasingly sunny mountain weather will prevail.
Very sunny again on Tuesday with an increasingly southerly flow. No significant change in the avalanche danger is expected.
