Monregalese Valleys

Below approximately 2400 m and on sunny slopes the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches will increase during the day.

Below approximately 2400 m and on sunny slopes the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches will increase during the day.

From the late morning as a consequence of warming there will be a gradual increase in the danger of moist and wet avalanches. This applies in particular at low and intermediate altitudes. Wind slabs can sometimes be released by a single winter sport participant, but they will be small in most cases. Dry slab avalanches are possible, even medium-sized ones. This applies especially on steep slopes adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls.

The northwesterly wind has transported the new snow and, in some cases, old snow as well. In particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs formed. The weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to significant moistening of the snowpack in particular at low and intermediate altitudes.
