Low avalanche danger, no marked problem

Low avalanche danger, no marked problem

Avalanche danger is low. Due to rain impact and mild temperatures, the focus of danger zones lies on wet-snow and glide-snow avalanches. Very isolated wet slides possible.

The snowpack base is stable by and large, but moist down to the ground, which means it can glide over smooth ground. Atop of it since some fresh snow which is now soft and sticky. On shady slopes there are hardly any remaining reserves of cold in the snowpack.

On Saturday in the Northern Alps, sunshine and dry weather all day long. South of the Main Alpine Ridge, low lying cloud will persist, high peaks in fog, occasional minor rainfall, snowfall above 1400 m, moderate southerly winds, brisk in exposed terrain. At 2000 m: +1 degree.

On Sunday, mostly sunny from the start accompanied by often storm-strength southerly winds. At 2000 m: 0 degrees. Avalanche danger levels are not expected to change significantly.
