As a consequence of new snow and wind a moderate avalanche danger will be encountered in some regions.

As a consequence of new snow and wind a moderate avalanche danger will be encountered in some regions.

Avalanches can in isolated cases be released. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes strong wind from easterly directions, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

Above approximately 1000 m snow will fall in particular in the Prealps. In some cases new snow and wind slabs are lying on soft layers. The fresh wind slabs are in isolated cases prone to triggering. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

The conditions will foster a gradual stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations.
