Runout zones of wet-snow avalanches should be avoided. Trigger-sensitive fresh snow requires attentiveness. Starting at midday, CONSIDERABLE danger level.

Runout zones of wet-snow avalanches should be avoided. Trigger-sensitive fresh snow requires attentiveness. Starting at midday, CONSIDERABLE danger level.

Naturally triggered small-to-medium wet avalanches will increase as rainfall sets in. On extremely steep slopes, small-to-medium wet loose-snow avalanches can be expected. Particularly at the foot of rock walls, small-to-medium wet slab avalanches are possible. Runout zones of wet-snow avalanches should be avoided. Above 1900m: lots of fresh snow expected which will be prone to triggering, also the freshly generated snowdrift accumulations, esp. in gullies and bowls in zones with wind impact. Avalanches can in isolated cases sweep along the thoroughly wet snowpack, which then lengthens the runout zone of the plummeting snow masses.

Rainfall will make the snowpack thoroughly wet, esp. below 1900m. Above 1900m, 20-30cm of fresh snow anticipated. The fresh fallen snow is prone to triggering. In the lowermost part of the snowpack on N/W/E-facing slopes, faceted expansively metamorphosed weak layers threaten.

On Saturday, gray skies, dense clouds all day long, poor visibility. Strong NE winds will be blowing, intensifying in the evening hours. At 2000m: -1 degree, at 1000m +5 degrees. Source: GeoSphere
