Avalanche Activity

Not much snow on the ground, mostly low danger

Avalanche danger is low. During the course of the day, small slides and wet-snow avalanches can trigger. On smooth, steep grass-covered slopes and in sparsely wooded zones, isolated small glide-snow avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

The shallow snowpack has settled well and is stable. Solar radiation and daytime warming moisten the snowpack and lead to a loss of firmness in the snowpack. On sunny slopes, the ground is becoming bare of snow to an increasing degree, insufficient for backcountry tours.

Weather Synopsis

Nocturnal hours: skies will be heavily overcast, some light rainfall is possible. The snowfall level will lie at 1500m. Thursday: Peaks will often be wrapped in fog, minor snowfall above 1500 m. At 2000 m: +2 to -1 degree. Light SW winds.

Tendency

Friday will be pleasant, sunny with some clouds, intermittently strong winds. Avalanche danger remains low.
