Avalanche Activity

Wet-snow problem. Glide-snow problem.

Avalanche danger is MODERATE. In very-to-extremely steep terrain (>40°), naturally triggered small-to-medium sized avalanches can release, mostly wet-snow, but some dry-snow and loose-snow or glide-snow avalanches (also hillsides). Winter sports enthusiasts can trigger a slab or loose-snow avalanche by large additional loading, esp. on east-facing slopes.

Snowpack Structure

Fresh snow, snowdrifts and old snow - insofar as it exists - has bonded well and settled. The snow is wet or at least moist/sticky up to high altitudes and heavy.

Weather Synopsis

On Tuesday, low lying clouds will reduce visibility, intermitten minor snowfall (below 1400-1700m as sleet or rainfall). Winds negligible from the north. At 2000 m: -1 degree; at 3000 m: -7 degrees.

Tendency

No significant change - stuck in the brew of fog.
