Avalanche Activity

Wet snow requires caution.

As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase a little. This applies in all aspects. Avalanches are rather small but can be released by a single winter sport participant. Avalanches can in very isolated cases release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach medium size.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced at times. The surface of the snowpack will freeze very little and will soften quickly. Sunshine and high temperatures gave rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack.

Tendency

As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase a little.
