Avalanche Activity

Gliding avalanches require caution.

An appreciable danger of gliding avalanches exists, in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m, as well as on steep shady slopes below approximately 2400 m. These can reach dangerously large size. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The snowpack will be wet all the way through below approximately 2200 m. The snowpack will be moist below approximately 2400 m. Afternoon: Above approximately 1500 m snow will fall over a wide area.

Tendency

Increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of the new snow. Numerous small and medium-sized loose snow avalanches are to be expected. Gliding avalanches require caution.
