Highlights

The wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The danger of moist snow slides and avalanches will increase during the day.

Avalanche Activity

The wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The danger of moist snow slides and avalanches will increase during the day.

Below approximately 2500 m small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist and wet avalanches are possible. As the day progresses as a consequence of warming there will be a gradual increase in the danger of moist and wet avalanches, in particular on steep sunny slopes above the tree line, as well as on steep east, south and west facing slopes. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur. In the regions with a lot of snow dry slab avalanches are possible, even medium-sized ones. These can be released, especially by large additional loads,, especially on steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. These can in isolated cases reach medium size. The prevalence of the avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls, as well as in places that are protected from the wind.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The weather conditions from the early morning will give rise to gradual moistening of the snowpack in particular on very steep slopes. This applies in particular below approximately 2500 m in all aspects. At low and intermediate altitudes a little snow is lying.

Tendency

The weather conditions will facilitate a gradual strengthening of the snowpack. Gradual decrease in danger of dry avalanches. More gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are possible, in particular medium-sized ones.
