Wind slabs require caution.

Wind slabs require caution.

The fresh and older wind slabs can still be released in some cases on west to north to east facing aspects. In particular slopes adjacent to ridgelines are unfavourable. Mostly avalanches are rather small.

Fresh and somewhat older wind slabs are lying on weak layers in particular on west to north to east facing aspects. The more recent wind slabs will be deposited on surface hoar in some places.

As a consequence of new snow and a gathering storm force northwesterly wind, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form on Monday. In many cases wind slabs are lying on surface hoar. For this reason the avalanche danger will increase during the day.
