Avalanche Activity

Generally stable conditions. Triggering of small wet avalanches is possible where the sun warms up the snow surface in the morning. There is uncertainty about snowpack conditions in high-lying northerly aspects. Exercise extra caution.

Generelt er det stabile forhold. Nattefrost og klarvær vil gi hard og isete snøoverflate tidlig på dagen. På formiddagen vil solen mykne opp snøoverflaten og det kan gå små våte skred.

Snowpack Structure

Snødekket er smelteomvandlet og de fleste steder uten betydelig lagdeling etter mildvær den siste uken. Onsdag rapporteres det tykk og hard skare i snøoverflaten over våte smelteformer på 300 moh i Hammerfest.

Kantkorn i forbindelse med skarelag er muligens intakt i høytliggende skyggesider.

Tendency

Generally favorable conditions. Wet snow avalanches are possible to trigger on very steep slopes where the snow surface gets warm and wet. Be aware that also small avalanches can have large consequences over terrain traps.
