Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of snowfall and the moderate wind, a precarious avalanche situation will develop during the next few days. New snow and wind slabs are lying on a weakly bonded old snowpack. Numerous weak layers exist in the old snowpack. They are to be found in particular on shady slopes. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations.

Tendency

Some snow will fall.

Avalanche Activity

In the course of the day danger level 3 (considerable) will be reached.

Gradual increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of new snow and wind. The avalanche-prone wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack in particular on steep shady slopes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Wind slabs can be released, even by a single winter sport participant.
