Isolated danger zones for wet-snow avalanches
Avalanche danger is low. In isolated cases, small glide-snow or wet-snow avalanches can release in steep terrain which has not yet discharged or the thoroughly wet snowpack can be triggered by persons.
Slopes are becoming increasingly bare. What little snow there is on the ground, is wet. The melt-freeze crust which exists in early morning softens during the daytime and the snowpack forfeiets its firmness due to higher daytime temperatures and solar radiation.
Nocturnal skies will be predominantly clear and with light winds, final showers and convective clouds will collapse. On Thursday, lots of sunshine and good visibility. Starting at midday, convective cloud build-up, visibility will be reduced only at highest altitudes. Shower and thunderstorm risks are low. Winds will be light from northerly direction. At 2000m: 9-13 degrees; at 3000m: 1 degree. Skies on Thursday night will be predominantly clear.
Little change expected
