On shady slopes, isolated near-surface weak layers

On shady slopes, isolated near-surface weak layers

Predominantly favorable conditions prevail, with low avalanche danger. Isolated danger zones occur at high altitudes esp. on shady ridgeline steep slopes, they can trigger small slab avalanches in steep shady terrain. With rising temperatures and solar radiation, moist slides are increasingly possible.

Fresh snow and drifts of recent days have bonded well with the old snowpack by and large. Above 2200m on shady slopes, isolated near-surface weak layers are evident. The below-average old snowpack is well consolidated all in all. With rising temperatures and solar radiation, increasingly frequent gliding snow activity is expected.

Sunday will bring brilliant sunshine but cold air in the mountains, temperatures rising during the course of the day at all altitudes. Brisk winds will make it feel colder. At 2000m: -2 degrees. Light to moderate easterly to northeasterly winds at high altitudes.
