Avalanche Activity
Favorable situation
Avalanche danger is low. Naturally triggered small wet loose-snow avalanches can be expected on very steep sunny slopes. Avalanche activity will increase as the day progresses. Small slab avalanches can trigger near ridgelines on NW/N/E facing slopes in steep terrain only in few spots. Danger zones occur esp. behind discontinuties and in very steep gullies.
Snowpack Structure
A thin melt-freeze crust can form at night, and quickly softens during the day. The fresh snow from the beginning of the week has settled, generally well bonded with the old snowpack surface. The old snowpack is compact, thoroughly wet except on shady slopes above 2000 m (still reserves of cold).
Weather Forecast
On Friday, intermittent sunshine, cloudbanks passing through (sometimes heavy, creating diffuse light), the peaks will be in the clear. It will stay dry. Winds only light. At 2000 m: 4-7 degrees.
Tendency
Danger of wet loose-snow avalanches will decrease.
