More dry avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small. The older wind slabs are mostly small and can be released by large loads in particular. This applies especially on very steep slopes adjacent to ridgelines. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of moist avalanches being released will increase a little in particular on rocky slopes.
The mostly small wind slabs of last week have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. The snowpack will be stable over a wide area. In all aspects less snow than usual is lying in all altitude zones.
