Middle Lys Valley

The snowpack remains well bonded.

The snowpack remains well bonded.

A clear night will be followed in the early morning by favourable conditions. On extremely steep slopes only isolated mostly small moist snow slides and avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in very isolated cases, this applies in particular in case of a large load. This applies in particular on very steep north facing slopes.

Less snow than usual is lying. On steep sunny slopes below approximately 2500 m from a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. Faceted weak layers exist in the snowpack in particular on north, northeast and northwest facing slopes.

The avalanche danger will persist.
