Wet avalanches as the day progresses.

Wet avalanches as the day progresses.

The early morning will see quite favourable conditions. The mostly small wind slabs of the weekend are now only very rarely prone to triggering. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. The wind slabs are clearly recognisable. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be a gradual increase in the danger of wet avalanches. On extremely steep slopes moist loose snow slides are to be expected. Mostly avalanches are only small.

On Monday it will be very mild. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack. The rather small wind slabs of the weekend have bonded quite well with the old snowpack.

The conditions are spring-like. Increase in danger of wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
