Avalanche Activity

Isolated danger zones for wet-snow avalanches

Avalanche danger is low. In isolated cases, small glide-snow or wet-snow avalanches can release in steep terrain which has not yet discharged or it can be triggered by persons.

Snowpack Structure

On sunny slopes, the ground is becoming bare. What little snow there is, is moist-to-wet (0-degree isotherm) and often forms a crust capable of bearing loads after a night of clear skies. Daytime warming and solar radiation soften the crust and make it forfeit its firmness.

Weather Forecast

Nighttime skies will rapidly clear. On Saturday, sunshine will dominate, good visibility right from the start. In the afternoon, convective cloud build-up is expected but it will remain dry. Winds mostly light. At 2000m: +2 to +7 degrees. Skies on Saturday night will be predominantly clear.

Tendency

Slight daytime danger cycle (wet-snow activity) within the same Danger Level
