Monregalese Valleys

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep, little used shady slopes. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep, little used shady slopes. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found on steep slopes above approximately 2200 m. Places where weak layers exist in the old snowpack or where melt-freeze crusts have formed are unfavourable. The avalanches can still in isolated cases be released, mostly by large loads and reach medium size.

As a consequence of mild temperatures and solar radiation the snowpack consolidated during the last few days. On sunny slopes as well as at low altitude only a little snow is lying on south and southeast facing slopes. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack in particular on sunny slopes at low and intermediate altitudes.

Until Monday the weather will be mild. The weather conditions will foster a strengthening of the snowpack.
