Low avalanche danger will prevail. Fresh wind slabs require caution.

As a consequence of a strong to storm force southwesterly wind, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form in the course of the day at high altitude. The fresh wind slabs are small. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes, and adjacent to ridgelines. Individual gliding avalanches and snow slides are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes.

Over a wide area strong southwesterly wind. Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers on shady slopes at high altitude. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

On Monday as a consequence of new snow and wind there will be an increase in the avalanche danger. The snowpack will become increasingly prone to triggering.
