Avalanche danger differs during the course of the day. Increasing spontaneous wet-snow avalanches from steep terrain in high altitudes!

The avalanche danger changes from low to moderate during the course of the day above 1.800 m. Danger spots are located in steep shady slopes and gullies. There spontaneous loose-snow avalanches are possible any time. On smooth surfaces gliding-snow avalanches are possible. Avoid areas below glide cracks. Avalanches are small to medium sized.8

in high altitudes a thin surface hoar-crust could form during the night, which softens quickly during the day. the snow base is isothermal and wet or mois even in high altitudes. On southern exposed slopes the snow has almost fully retreated and the retreatment increases.

After a predominantly clear night, the Easter Sunday will be sunny and mild. Only in the northern Alps some clouds are visible. Moderate southwesterly winds, in the foothills winds can be brisk. Temperatures at noon in 2.000 m are between +4 and +8 degrees.

Monday will be changeable with few showers in the afternoon. No significant changes of the avalanche danger.
