Wet-snow avalanches up to intermediate altitudes, due to rain and warmth

Wet-snow avalanches up to intermediate altitudes, due to rain and warmth

Low avalanche danger prevails. Due to warmth and rain impact, wet slides and small avalanches continue to be possible at low altitutudes in all aspects and, on steep grassy slopes, small glide-snow avalanches.

The generally shallow snowpack is thoroughly wet up to intermediate altitudes, thus continues to forfeit its firmness. Sunny slopes and lower altitude terrain are becoming bare of snow.

Wednesday night: short phase of scattered clouds, heavier cloud cover in the latter part of the night, accompanied by light rainfall. The snowfall level will lie at 1700 m. Thursday: heavy and variable cloud cover, changing visibility. Perhaps a bit of sunshine in the morning, in the afternoon more clouds will move in, rainfall will set in, snowfall above 1800 m. It will remain quite mild and storm-strength winds will prevail at high altitudes. At 2000 m: +1 degree. Strong to stormy westerly winds.

Where rain impact is felt, small-to-medium wet and also glide-snow avalanches can be expected in all aspects from zones where avalanches have not yet released.
