The fresh snow of the last two days as well as the scattered wind slabs are lying on a crust on sunny slopes and at low and intermediate altitudes. New snow and wind slabs can in some cases be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. Small and medium-sized natural avalanches are possible on steep slopes. In places where more snow falls danger level 3 (considerable) may be reached in the course of the day.

Over a wide area 15 cm of snow fell yesterday above approximately 1000 m. Over a wide area 10 to 20 cm of snow will fall until late morning. The new snow of the last two days is bonding only slowly with the old snowpack in particular on southeast to south to southwest facing aspects. Over a wide area new snow is lying on the smooth surface of an old snowpack.
