Avalanche Activity

As a consequence of the precipitation the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. In these regions danger level 3 (considerable) will be reached.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Large and, in isolated cases, very large avalanches are possible. Fresh wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence. Gliding avalanches can also occur. The avalanches can be released by small loads.

Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of new snow and wind, wind slabs will form. The weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to increasing moistening of the snowpack in particular at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

Heavy precipitation. Strong wind. As a consequence of the precipitation the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. In these regions danger level 4 (high) will be reached.
