Avalanche Activity

Increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches in the course of the day.

As the day progresses as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be a gradual increase in the danger of wet and gliding avalanches. Especially on rocky east, south and west facing slopes small to medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are to be expected as the penetration by moisture increases. In addition further small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.

Snowpack Structure

Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack especially on sunny slopes. The old snowpack will be stable.

Tendency

Wet loose snow avalanches and gliding avalanches are still possible.
