Avalanche Activity

As a consequence of new snow and wind the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent. As a consequence of snowfall and the strong wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form.

The fresh wind slabs are in some cases prone to triggering. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. As a consequence of the moist air there will be an increase in the danger of moist and wet avalanches. The avalanches can be released by large loads.

Snowpack Structure

As a consequence of new snow and a strong wind, wind slabs will form in particular at high altitude. The weather conditions will give rise to moistening of the snowpack at low and intermediate altitudes. Weak layers exist in the snowpack.

Tendency

The weather will be mostly sunny.
