    Stability: fair · Frequency: few

Snowpack Structure

Above approximately 1900 m: Weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on northeast, north and northwest facing slopes. Steep sunny slopes: Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise to increasing moistening of the snowpack.

Tendency

Low avalanche danger will prevail.

Avalanche Activity

Low avalanche danger will prevail.

Dry avalanches can be released in near-ground layers, in particular by large additional loads. This applies especially on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes above approximately 1900 m in steep rocky terrain. The avalanche prone locations are rare but are barely recognisable. In very isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. As the day progresses the likelihood of wet snow slides being released will increase a little below approximately 1900 m. This applies in particular on extremely steep sunny slopes.
