Avalanche Activity

Wet snow requires caution.

As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase gradually, especially on steep sunny slopes at high altitude, as well as on steep shady slopes below approximately 2400 m. On steep grassy slopes small to medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The surface of the snowpack will freeze very little and will already soften in the late morning. This applies in particular on sunny slopes at intermediate and high altitudes, as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2400 m.

Tendency

The weather will be exceptionally warm. Increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as a consequence of warming.
