Monregalese Valleys

At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions a considerable avalanche danger will persist.

At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions a considerable avalanche danger will persist.

Over a wide area 40 to 60 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, fell on Tuesday above approximately 2300 m. Above approximately 2600 m and in starting zones where no previous releases have taken place more medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large natural avalanches are possible. This applies especially on shady slopes. Below approximately 2700 m: Several moist and wet avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.

The sleet gave rise to significant moistening of the snowpack below approximately 2500 m. Towards its surface, the snowpack is moist and its surface has a crust that is strong in many cases. The surface of the snowpack will soften later than the day before. Below approximately 2000 m a little snow is lying.

Some snow will fall in the evening over a wide area. 10 to 20 cm of snow will fall until Sunday above approximately 2000 m.
