Evaluate freshly generated snowdrift accumulations on shady slopes with great caution.
Due to fresh snowfall and increasily stormy winds, far-reaching snowdrift accumulations are being generated, particularly on shady slopes above 1800m: easily triggered or triggering naturally. Avalanches are mostly small-sized. In addition, small loose-snow avalanches will be possible during the course of the day, particularly on extremely steep sunny slopes.
Up to 20cm of fresh snow was registered, locally more. The often storm-strength winds have intensively transported the snow. The fresh snowdrift accumulations blanket a weak old snowpack surface on shady slopes above 1800m. The old snowpack is faceted. The snowpack is highly irregular, even over small areas.
On Saturday an intermediate high-pressure weather front will temporarily bring sunny weather with good visibility. The NW winds will ease off noticeably. At 2000m: -6 degrees.
Avalanche danger levels are not expected to change significantly.
