Avalanche Activity

Small spontaneous loose and wet-snow avalanches possible.

The avalanche danger is assessed as low. The few danger spots are located above 2000m in extremely steep, north-facing slopes and gullies that have not yet been unloaded. Spontaneous loose and wet-snow avalanches cannot be ruled out there.

Snowpack Structure

The snowcover is isothermal and till high altitudes wet or moist. On southern exposed slopes the snow has almost fully retreated and the retreatment increases.

Weather Forecast

The weather on Thursday is cooler and more unsettled. The mountains are mostly covered in fog and there are some local rain showers. The snowfall level will drop to 2000 m as a north-westerly wind blows from the north. Friday will be cloudy and rainy with a snowfall level between 1600 m and 1900 m.

Tendency

No significant change of the avalanche danger is expected.
