Avalanche Activity

Slight increase in danger of wet avalanches in the course of the day.

Late morning: The early morning will see favourable avalanche conditions over a wide area. Midday and afternoon: As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches during the day being released will increase a little. This applies especially on steep west facing slopes. The avalanches are rather small. In particular in steep rocky terrain more loose snow avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

The weather conditions facilitated a substantial strengthening of the weak layers. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night was good over a wide area. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack especially on sunny slopes. These conditions will bring about a gradual weakening of the snowpack from midday. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

Low avalanche danger will persist.
