    Stability: fair · Frequency: few

Tendency

In the western Prealps in some localities up to 15 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1000 m. In the western Prealps the avalanche danger will increase a little. In the other regions in some localities up to 10 cm of snow will fall in all altitude zones.

Snowpack Structure

The wind slabs are lying on weak layers. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

Avalanche Activity

Wind slabs require caution.

Wind slabs can in isolated cases be released. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep shady slopes, as well as adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.
