Avalanche Activity

The prevalence of the avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence. As the day progresses as a consequence of solar radiation there will be a gradual increase in the danger of moist and wet avalanches. Gliding avalanches can also occur. The avalanches can be released by small loads.

Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of new snow and wind, wind slabs formed. The weather conditions gave rise to thorough wetting of the snowpack in particular at low and intermediate altitudes.

Tendency

The weather will be partly cloudy. Over a wide area light precipitation.
