Graie Alps

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions.

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions.

The avalanches can as before be released by large loads, but they will be small in most cases. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.

In some localities 2 to 5 cm of snow, but less in some localities, fell on Wednesday. The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack on sunny slopes. The snowpack is largely stable. The spring-like weather conditions gave rise to increasing consolidation of the snowpack in particular at low and intermediate altitudes. As a consequence of mild temperatures solar radiation a crust formed on the surface at the weekend. At low altitude only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
