Avalanche Activity

With the end of the rainfall, the natural activity of wet avalanches will gradually decrease.

As a consequence of the rain more medium-sized wet avalanches are possible. This applies in particular during the course of the night. Caution is to be exercised on very steep shady slopes. In steep gullies avalanches can reach areas without any snow cover. The runout zones are to be avoided.

Snowpack Structure

Northwest, north and northeast facing slopes: The snowpack will be wet all the way through in all altitude zones. As a consequence of rain up to high altitudes the snowpack can not consolidate during the night. West and east facing slopes: Only a little snow is now lying. The snowpack will be wet all the way through.

Tendency

Gradual decrease in danger of wet avalanches.
