Avalanche Activity

Moderate avalanche danger, 2nd degree, has formed in the Tatras and in the eastern part of the Low Tatras

Due to the night snowfall and very strong south wind, an unfavourable avalanche situation was created locally. Avalanche release on very steep, especially northern slopes is possible, especially with high additional loads. Occasional small to medium-sized spontaneous avalanches may occur. Wet snow will be less of a problem at altitudes up to 1500 m.

Tendency

Persistent
