Chiemgau Alps East

Precipitation falls on largely stable snowpack.

Precipitation falls on largely stable snowpack.

On very steep north-facing slopes on the summits, small slab avalanches can be triggered with large additional loads. This is particularly the case at transitions from a little to a lot of snow.

Despite the lack of outgoing longwave radiation, the snowpack will be mostly hard and moist down to the ground in the morning. Some new fallen snow will fall on this largely stable snowpack on Saturday. Only on the shady slopes adjacent to the ridgeline, crest or summit will there be weak layers of faceted crystals at the base of the snowpack. The low altitudes are snowed out.

Depending on the amount of new snow, the avalanche risk may increase slightly.
