Vest-Finnmark

Sun and high temperatures will melt the snow, and wet loose avalanches may release, and cornices may collapse.

Precipitation and wind have transported snow into leeward formations. The amount of precipitation has been limited, and the high temperatures will likely stabilize the wind-drifted snow quickly. At higher elevations, it will still be possible to trigger avalanches.

In sheltered formations, faceted crystals may have formed high in the snowpack, which could amplify the wind slab problem, but the extent of this is uncertain.

Sol og høye temperaturer vil tine snøen og våte løssnøskred kan løsne og skavler kan kollapse.

Nedbør og vind har transportert snø i leformasjoner. Nedbørsmengdene har vært begrenset, og høye temperaturer vil trolig stabilisere fokksnøen raskt. I høyden vil det fortsatt være mulig å løse ut skred.

I skjermede formasjoner kan det ha dannet seg kantkorn høyt i snødekket som forsterker fokksnøproblemet, men utbredelsen er usikkert.

I lavlandet er snødekket fuktet opp til ca. 400 moh. Det har de siste dagene kommet nysnø ned til havnivå, og spesielt i høyden er det observert vindtransport og opptil en halvmeter med fokksnø i leheng. Fokksnøflakene varierer i hardhet, men det er gode muligheter for å finne løs snø. Kantkorn finnes i snødekket, men utbredelsen er usikkert.
