Avalanche Activity

Only few danger zones

Avalanche danger is low. Isolated danger zones occur near ridgelines, esp. in steep shady terrain at summit level. Apart from the danger of being buried in snow masses, the risks of being swept along and forced to take a fall demand adequate consideration. During the course of the day, small loose-snow slides continue to be possible. On steep grass-covered slopes, isolated small glide-snow avalanches are possible.

Snowpack Structure

On shady slopes at high altitudes, isolated weak layers in transitions from old to fresh snow. On sunny slopes and at lower altitudes the snowpack is often 0-degrees isotherm.

Weather Forecast

Variably cloudy to heavily clouded during the nocturnal hours. Strong-velocity southerly foehn winds. On Wednesday, storm-strength southerly foehn winds will create sunny intervals and bring good visibility. At high altitudes, brisk southerly winds. At 2000m: -1 to +2 degrees.

Tendency

Initially no change. On Friday, more fresh snowfall.
