Slab avalanches can be triggered by large additional loading and grow to medium size. Danger zones occur in steep ridgeline terrain, behind sharp drops in the landscape, in wind-loaded gullies and bowls. In very steep terrain, loose-snow avalanches are possible due to solar radiation and daytime warming. On steep grass-covered slopes, gliding snow activity is gradually increasing.

The fresh snow and drifts from recent days have been able to settle somewhat and increasingly consolidate. Also the latest snowdrift accumulations are stabilized. The old snowpack is generally well consolidated and compact.

Quite sunny in the mountains. Initially some residual clouds, otherwise visibility generally good. Milder temperatures will continue at all altitudes. Temperature at 2000m: from -5 to -2 degrees; at 3000m: -9 to -6 degrees. Moderate northerly winds at high altitude.

On Easter Weekend, danger of wet-snow avalanches will increase through significant daytime rise in temperatures.
