Avalanche Activity

Slight daytime danger cycle

Avalanche danger is low. With rising temperatures and solar radiation, increasingly frequent moist slides and small wet snow avalanches are possible. On steep grass-covered slopes with sufficient snow or a smooth undersurface, increasingly frequent small glide-snow avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

The below-average old snowpack is well consolidated all in all and mostly stable. On shady slopes the uppermost crusts are often still powdery. Overnight a melt-freeze crust forms on sunny slopes and at lower altitudes. Due to rising temperatures and solar radiation, the snowpack gradually moistens further, as it becomes wet it also becomes weak.

Weather Forecast

Thursday will bring brilliant sunshine once again, but with occasionally disturbing southerly foehn winds At 2000m: +4 degrees. Light to brisk southerly winds at high altitudes, strong velocity on foehn-impacted mountains.

Tendency

Springtime conditions continue, with slight daytime rise in avalanche danger levels
