Avalanche Activity

Increase in danger of wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase appreciably. Caution is to be exercised in particular on very steep sunny slopes. Avalanches can in some cases release the saturated snowpack. Gliding avalanches can also occur. This applies on grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m.

Snowpack Structure

Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack in particular on sunny slopes. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day.

Tendency

Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack.
