Avalanche danger is often low, moderate at high altitudes. In some places there are weak layers inside the snowpack which can be triggered by large additional loading. Small-to-medium sized avalanches are thereby possible, especially by large additional loading. On steep grassy slopes and hillsides, especially on sunny slopes but increasingly frequently on shady slopes, small glide-snow avalanches are possible. Caution urged below glide cracks.
The snowpack has settled well and consolidated increasingly. On shady slopes the uppermost layers are still loose or soft, on sunny slopes a crust has often formed. On high mostly shady slopes, weak layers are evident inside the old snowpack, also at ground level, which avalanches can trigger down to with large additional loading. The older drifts at high altitudes are generally compact. Mild temperatures reinforce gliding movements of the snowpack.
Nocturnal skies will be star-studded. On Monday it will be radiantly sunny, mild, with little wind. Zero-degree level at 2600m At 2000m: +2 - +1 to +4 degrees. Light W/NW winds at high altitudes.
Avalanche danger levels will continue to decrease. Glide-snow avalanches will increasingly become the main danger.
