Carnic Alps Lesachtal

Individual avalanche prone locations for wet avalanches are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes.

Individual avalanche prone locations for wet avalanches are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes.

From late morning the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase. As the penetration by moisture increases individual wet slab avalanches are possible as the day progresses. This applies in particular in case of releases originating from high-altitude shady starting zones that have retained the snow thus far, especially between approximately 2200 and 2600 m. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. Avalanches can release the wet snowpack. This extends the avalanche runout distances.

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be quite good at times. The snowpack is wet and its surface has a melt-freeze crust. The surface of the snowpack will soften quickly. In particular on steep sunny slopes as well as below approximately 1800 m only a little snow is now lying. Afternoon: Some rain will fall.

The danger of wet avalanches will persist.
