Stability: poor · Frequency: some
Slight increase in danger of moist and wet avalanches as a consequence of the moist air.
As a consequence of the moist air more frequent moist loose snow avalanches are possible below approximately 2000 m. Mostly these are small and can be released by a single winter sport participant. As the moisture increases there will be only a slight increase in the danger of gliding avalanches. This applies in particular in the west.
Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. In some localities light rain to intermediate altitudes. The surface of the snowpack will soften during the day. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
As a consequence of the moist air individual small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist snow slides and avalanches are possible.
