Avalanche Activity

Increase in danger of wet avalanches as a consequence of the rain. Gliding snow requires caution.

From midday as a consequence of the rain there will be a rapid increase in the danger of wet avalanches. Individual medium-sized wet and gliding avalanches are possible. This applies in all aspects especially below approximately 2400 m. Especially west, north and east facing slopes are unfavourable. The danger is within the upper range of danger level 2 (moderate).

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The surface of the snowpack is frozen, but not to a significant depth and will soften earlier than the day before. Up to 2400 m rain will fall from the afternoon. The spring-like weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack.

Tendency

The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will soften quickly. Wet and gliding avalanches are possible from the early morning.
