Stability: very poor · Frequency: many
New snow and wind slabs above approximately 1800 m. In addition the sometimes large wind slabs of the last two days at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions are capable of being triggered. Weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on steep shady slopes.

New snow and wind slabs above approximately 1800 m. In addition the sometimes large wind slabs of the last two days at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions are capable of being triggered. Weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on steep shady slopes.
As a consequence of new snow and a strong to storm force wind, sometimes easily released wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The avalanche danger is close to the boundary with danger level 4 (high). On steep slopes and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain slab avalanches are possible, even large ones.
Over a wide area over a wide area 30 to 70 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since Monday above approximately 1800 m. The snowpack will become in most cases subject to considerable local variations. The various wind slabs have bonded poorly with the old snowpack. The rain gave rise to thorough wetting of the snowpack over a wide area below approximately 1700 m.
Thursday: The avalanche danger will decrease.
