Over a wide area wind and new snow.

In some localities up to 50 cm of snow will fall until Thursday. The avalanche danger should be investigated very thoroughly in the relevant locality. In particular in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation large to very large avalanches are possible. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence. Avalanches can be released in deep layers of the snowpack. Avalanches can be released by small loads.

As a consequence of new snow and wind, further wind slabs will form. The wind slabs have bonded poorly with the old snowpack. Weak layers exist in the snowpack.

Over a wide area intensive precipitation. The wind will be strong at times. We recommend that you consult the most recent avalanche bulletin.
