Snowpack Structure

Until the evening the weather will be exceptionally warm. The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. These conditions will cause a rapid weakening of the snowpack. Hardly any snow is lying at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

Temporary decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the temperature drops. Some snow will fall in some regions.

Avalanche Activity

The weather will be exceptionally warm. Wet snow requires caution.

As a consequence of warming, the activity of wet avalanches will rapidly increase. This applies in all aspects. In some cases the wet avalanches can release the saturated snowpack. Mostly they are rather small. On steep grassy slopes mostly small gliding avalanches are possible.
