Avalanche Activity

In particular in the regions that are exposed to the foehn wind light precipitation.

The early morning will see quite favourable conditions. Light snowfall at intermediate altitudes: This applies in particular along the border with France. Some fresh snow as well as local small wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases. In some places the avalanches can be released in the large-grained old snow and reach medium size.

Snowpack Structure

The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze. In the event of an overcast night this applies in particular. Some snow will fall in particular along the border with France. Over a wide area less snow than usual is lying. Adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas as well as in high Alpine regions snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the snowpack on shady slopes.
