Avalanche Activity

The danger of moist and wet avalanches will increase a little during the day. Fresh wind slabs require caution. In isolated cases the avalanches can be released in deep layers of the snowpack.

As a consequence of warming and solar radiation, the activity of moist and wet avalanches will only slowly increase. In the event of prolonged bright spells this applies in particular in the vicinity of peaks. Most and wet avalanches can in isolated cases be released by a single winter sport participant. Avalanches can penetrate down to the ground. The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence especially on steep shady slopes. The new snow and wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects above approximately 2400 m.

Snowpack Structure

The rain gave rise to increasing moistening of the snowpack below approximately 2700 m. The snowpack will become gradually moist. The new snow and wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects in high Alpine regions.
