Western Nonsberg Alps

Weakly bonded old snow requires caution.

Weakly bonded old snow requires caution.

Avalanches can in very isolated cases be released in the old snowpack. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations above approximately 1800 m. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

The avalanche danger will persist.
