Low avalanche danger will be encountered over a wide area.

Low avalanche danger will be encountered over a wide area.

Currently there are favourable conditions over a wide area. As a consequence of warming during the day there will be only a slight increase in the danger of moist snow slides. This applies in particular on extremely steep shady slopes at high altitude. Isolated mostly small gliding avalanches are possible on steep grassy slopes.

During the night the weather will be partly cloudy. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust only at high altitudes. The spring-like weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to gradual moistening of the snowpack. In all regions only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year. At low and intermediate altitudes from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

Fresh wind slabs in the high Alpine regions. As the temperature drops there will be a decrease in the danger of moist and wet snow slides on Sunday.
