Tendency

Over a wide area 20 to 40 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall above approximately 1000 m.

Avalanche Activity

The fresh snow of the weekend and the deep wind slabs represent the main danger.

Caution is to be exercised on wind-loaded slopes adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Dry slab avalanches are possible. Sometimes the avalanches are medium-sized and can be released in some cases even by a single winter sport participant.

Snowpack Structure

The moderate wind will transport the new snow. The avalanche-prone wind slabs are lying on weak layers in particular on wind-protected shady slopes above approximately 1500 m. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations.
