Low avalanche danger

Low avalanche danger

The avalanche danger is low, isolated danger areas due to older snowdrift accumulations can still be found behind the edges of the terrain adjacent to the ridgeline and in gullies and bowls that have been blown in. Drift snow areas are small and easily recognisable, but danger areas due to stones under the thin snow cover, snowpack are often not.

The snow cover, snowpack is very variable. In shady slopes, weak layers of faceted crystals are possible in the vicinity of crusts. Away from this, there is a succession of thin layers of new and drift snow on the meadows.

On Wednesday, visibility will often be limited by dense clouds, with light and unproductive snowfall in places. The afternoon will bring a few clear spells, but the sky will only clear up more frequently towards the evening. The wind will be mostly weak from the west, in exposed high areas moderately strong with peaks around 30 km/h from the north-east. Around -14 degrees at 2000 metres.

No change in avalanche danger.
