Stability: poor · Frequency: few
Gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are possible.
As a consequence of the moist air more frequent moist loose snow avalanches are possible below approximately 2200 m. Mostly these are small and can be released by a single winter sport participant. Individual mostly small gliding avalanches are possible.
Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The surface of the snowpack will soften during the day. This applies on very steep sunny slopes, as well as on shady slopes at low and intermediate altitudes. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
Moist avalanches require caution.
