Western Nonsberg Alps

Low danger will prevail.

Low danger will prevail.

As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase gradually especially on steep northeast and northwest facing slopes. Avalanches can in very isolated cases penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack and reach medium size.

In the last few days the weather was mild over a wide area. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to rapid moistening of the snowpack. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. In particular on sunny slopes at low and intermediate altitudes only a little snow is lying.

With the onset of the rainfall, the natural avalanche activity will increase.
