As a consequence of new snow and strong wind there will be a gradual increase in the avalanche danger to level 3 (considerable).

As a consequence of new snow and strong wind there will be a gradual increase in the avalanche danger to level 3 (considerable).

New snow and wind slabs represent the main danger. As a consequence of new snow and a freshening wind from northerly directions, avalanche prone wind slabs will form above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on wind-protected south facing slopes and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain above approximately 2000 m. Avalanches can be released, even by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. Avalanches can be released in deep layers, even by small loads in isolated cases. These places are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Careful route selection is recommended.

In some localities in some localities up to 30 cm of snow has fallen. The wind will be strong. The various wind slabs have bonded poorly with the old snowpack. The old snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. This applies in particular above approximately 2000 m.

The avalanche danger will persist. Fresh wind slabs require caution.
