Avalanche Activity
Isolated danger zones for wet-snow avalanches
Avalanche danger is low. In isolated cases, small glide-snow or wet-snow avalanches can release in steep terrain which has not yet discharged or it can be triggered by persons.
Snowpack Structure
On sunny slopes, the ground is becoming bare. What little snow there is, is moist-to-wet (0-degree isotherm) and often forms a crust capable of bearing loads after a night of clear skies. Daytime warming and solar radiation soften the crust and make it forfeit its firmness.
Weather Forecast
High-altitude clouds will reduce nocturnal outgoing radiation. On Easter Monday, initially pleasant with good visibility. Later, convective cloud build-up, showers can follow in the afternoon, visibility deteriorate. Gusty southerly winds in exposed zones. At 2000m: +3 to +7 degrees.
Tendency
On Tuesday following a frequently cloudy night, only few reserves of cold in the snowpack, which will rapidly soften.
