Avalanche Activity

Gradual increase in danger of moist and wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day.

At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and in starting zones where no previous releases have taken place more medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large dry avalanches are possible. This applies especially on shady slopes. Several moist and wet avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day. Mostly these are medium-sized. Backcountry tours should be started and concluded early.

Snowpack Structure

The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. The old snowpack will be moist at intermediate and high altitudes. Below approximately 2000 m a little snow is lying.
