Stability: poor · Frequency: few
As a consequence of new snow and wind the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent in the afternoon.
Above approximately 900 m snow will fall from early morning. The sometimes moderate wind will transport the new snow. As the day progresses as a consequence of new snow and strong wind there will be an increase in the danger of dry avalanches within the current danger level. The wind slabs can be released in isolated cases in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m. The avalanche prone locations are sometimes covered with new snow and are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility. Be careful, many rocks hidden.
Up to 2100 m and above rain fell on Monday. In some places new snow and wind slabs are lying on a hard crust. The wind slabs are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls and in the high Alpine regions.
As a consequence of new snow and wind the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase. Gradual increase in avalanche danger.
