Currently there are favourable conditions generally. Fresh wind slabs require caution.

Winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases. The fresh wind slabs are mostly small but can be released in isolated cases. They are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Avalanches can additionally in very isolated cases be released in the weakly bonded old snow also. These avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. They are very rare but are difficult to recognise. In many places there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.

In some regions up to 10 cm of snow will fall. The southeasterly wind will transport the new snow. In particular at elevated altitudes mostly small wind slabs will form. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, in particular on steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes.

The avalanche conditions remain mostly favourable.
