Avalanche Activity
New snow and wind slabs represent the main danger.
As a consequence of new snow and strong wind small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized avalanches are possible. In the last few days mostly small wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines. They can be released. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in steep terrain at elevated altitudes and on shady slopes. These are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular in terrain where there is a danger of falling.
Snowpack Structure
20 cm of snow has fallen since yesterday. The strong wind has transported the new snow significantly. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Towards its surface, the snowpack is weak in some cases and its surface consists of loosely bonded snow lying on a crust that is strong in many cases. The high temperatures on Monday gave rise to rapid moistening of the snowpack.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
