Avalanche Activity

Moderate danger of wet avalanches will be encountered over a wide area.

Wet avalanches can in some places be released by people and reach medium size. The avalanche prone locations are to be found on steep slopes of all aspects above approximately 2000 m. As the day progresses the likelihood of avalanches being released will increase.

Snowpack Structure

The spring-like weather conditions gave rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack over a wide area. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. The surface of the snowpack is hardly frozen at all will soften quickly. The high temperatures will give rise to a loss of strength within the snowpack.

Tendency

Moderate danger of wet avalanches will be encountered over a wide area.
