Wind slabs require caution. In addition gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are to be expected.
Wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitude. Mostly avalanches are small. On steep slopes mostly small gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are possible.
The wind slabs are in isolated cases prone to triggering. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. The surface of the snowpack will soften quickly. At low altitude hardly any snow is lying.
Some snow will fall in some localities. The avalanche danger will persist.
