Only a little snow is lying. Weak layers near the ground necessitate caution.

Weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate caution. These avalanche prone locations are rather rare but are barely recognisable, even to the trained eye. Up to 10 cm of snow will fall. As a consequence of new snow and a moderate to strong northwesterly wind, small wind slabs will form. Fresh wind slabs require caution.

Only a little snow is lying. Weak layers near the ground necessitate caution.

Avalanches can in isolated cases be released in the old snowpack. These are rather small but can be released even by a single winter sport participant. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In particular northwest, north and east facing slopes are unfavourable. In high Alpine regions the avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects.

Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. The snowpack will be prone to triggering in some places, in particular on northwest, north and east facing slopes at high altitude, as well as in all aspects in high Alpine regions. As a consequence of a moderate to strong southwesterly wind, small wind slabs will form in the course of the day in isolated cases. Steep sunny slopes: The surface of the snowpack is frozen, but not to a significant depth. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations.
