Avalanche Activity

Fresh and older wind slabs require caution.

The fresh wind slabs can be released in isolated cases in particular on steep shady slopes above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes, also at transitions into gullies and bowls. In very isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

Snowpack Structure

Some snow will fall in some regions. In isolated cases wind slabs are lying on soft layers, in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitude. Below the tree line only a little snow is lying.

Tendency

Hardly any decrease in danger as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Numerous loose snow avalanches are possible as the day progresses, but they will be mostly small.
