Snowpack Structure

The snowpack will be wet all the way through over a wide area. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will soften quickly. On steep sunny slopes as well as below approximately 1600 m only a little snow is now lying.

Tendency

Many starting zones have released the snow.

Avalanche Activity

Individual avalanche prone locations for wet avalanches are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes.

Wet avalanches can in very isolated cases be released by small loads and reach medium size. As a consequence of warming during the day only isolated natural wet avalanches are possible. Caution is to be exercised on very steep shady slopes. In steep gullies avalanches can in isolated cases reach areas without any snow cover. The runout zones are to be avoided.
