The sleet gave rise to significant moistening of the snowpack below approximately 2500 m. Towards its surface, the snowpack is moist and its surface has a crust that is strong in many cases. The new snow of yesterday is lying on a crust below approximately 2600 m. Below approximately 2000 m a little snow is lying.
At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions a considerable danger of dry and moist avalanches will be encountered in some regions.
Over a wide area up to 15 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since yesterday above approximately 2500 m. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and in starting zones where no previous releases have taken place more medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large natural avalanches are possible. This applies especially on shady slopes. Below approximately 2500 m: Several moist and wet avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming during the day. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.
