Avalanche Activity

Wet snow requires caution.

The danger of wet avalanches will already increase in the early morning. Especially on rocky east, south and west facing slopes mostly small wet avalanches are to be expected. As the day progresses also on shady slopes there will be only a slight increase in the danger of wet avalanches. In addition very occasional mostly small gliding avalanches are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.

Snowpack Structure

The surface of the snowpack cooled hardly at all during the overcast night and will soften quickly, especially on sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m. The high temperatures as the day progresses will give rise to increasing softening of the snowpack also on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. At low and intermediate altitudes hardly any snow is lying.

Tendency

The danger of wet avalanches will persist.
