Avalanche problems
Avalanche Activity
As a consequence of the precipitation the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent from midday.
The mostly small wind slabs can be released in isolated cases, but mostly only by large additional loads,. This applies in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas in particular at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. Some snow will fall from midday over a wide area. The avalanche danger will increase during the day, reaching danger level 2 (moderate). This applies in particular at intermediate and high altitudes.
Snowpack Structure
The weather conditions gave rise to rapid consolidation of the snowpack. In isolated cases wind slabs are lying on old snow containing large grains. This applies especially on shady slopes.
Tendency
Increase in danger of dry avalanches as the precipitation becomes more intense.
