Avalanche Activity

Isolated danger zones for wet-snow avalanches

Avalanche danger is low. In isolated cases, small glide-snow or wet-snow avalanches can release in steep terrain which has not yet discharged or the thoroughly wet snowpack can be triggered by persons.

Snowpack Structure

Slopes are becoming increasingly bare. What little snow there is on the ground, is wet. The melt-freeze crust which exists in early morning softens during the daytime and the snowpack forfeiets its firmness due to higher daytime temperatures and solar radiation.

Weather Forecast

Nocturnal skies will be predominantly clear and dry. Light N/NE winds. At 2000m: +6 degrees; at 3000m: 0 degrees. Conditions will stabilize somewhat, but some convective cloud build-up is expected, good visibility, thunderstorms unlikely. Winds will be light from the north. At 2000m: 6-10 degrees, cooler in the north; at 3000m: 0 degrees. Nighttime skies will be dry and clear.

Tendency

Little change expected
