Avalanche Activity

Not much snow on the ground, mostly low danger

Avalanche danger is low. During the course of the day, small slides and wet-snow avalanches can trigger. On smooth, steep grass-covered slopes and in sparsely wooded zones, isolated small glide-snow avalanches are possible. Glide cracks are indicators of danger.

Snowpack Structure

The shallow snowpack has settled well and is stable. Solar radiation and daytime warming moisten the snowpack and lead to a loss of firmness in the snowpack. On sunny slopes, the ground is becoming bare of snow to an increasing degree.

Weather Synopsis

Nocturnal hours: the latter part of the night will be star-studded. Tuesday: mostly cloudless skies, brilliant sunshine all day long. Very mild. At 2000 m: +5 degrees. Light to moderate NW winds.

Tendency

Wednesday will have more cloud, diffuse light conditions, mild, very dry air. On sunny slopes, danger of wet-snow avalanches will increase during the day.
