Moist avalanches can be released by people, but they will be small in most cases.

Moist avalanches can be released by people, but they will be small in most cases.

As a consequence of warming, the likelihood of moist snow slides during the day being released will increase a little, in particular on extremely steep sunny slopes, and at the base of rock walls. Avalanches can additionally in very isolated cases be released on extremely steep shady slopes. This applies in particular in gullies and bowls at elevated altitudes. Avalanches are small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls.

Steep sunny slopes: The high temperatures will give rise to rapid moistening of the snowpack. Steep shady slopes: In isolated cases various wind slab layers are lying on a weakly bonded old snowpack. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.

The weather will be warm. A little snow is lying.
