A mostly favourable avalanche situation will prevail.
The somewhat older wind slabs are to be avoided especially in steep terrain. Avalanches can still in isolated cases be released by a single winter sport participant, but they will be small in most cases. The avalanche prone locations are clearly recognisable to the trained eye.
In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly with the old snowpack. Towards its base, the snowpack is faceted, especially on wind-protected shady slopes. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.
As a consequence of falling temperatures, solar radiation and the mostly light wind, the snowpack consolidated.
