Avalanche Activity

Wet snow requires caution.

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small to medium-sized wet avalanches are to be expected. This applies especially on very steep sunny slopes. The runout zones are to be treated with caution.

Snowpack Structure

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be good at times. The weather conditions will give rise to thorough wetting of the snowpack. Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes.

Tendency

As a consequence of warming and solar radiation, the activity of wet avalanches will appreciably increase.
