Valsavaranche

In particular in the north new snow above approximately 2300 m.

In particular in the north new snow above approximately 2300 m.

In some regions 10 to 20 cm of snow will fall until Wednesday above approximately 2600 m. As a consequence of the new snow loose snow slides are possible as the day progresses, even medium-sized ones. This applies in all aspects above approximately 2800 m, and on rocky slopes. As the day progresses the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase a little in particular on steep sunny slopes. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and in steep rocky terrain. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found adjacent to ridgelines. In very isolated cases the avalanches can be triggered in deep layers of the snowpack. This applies on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2800 m.

In some localities up to 15 cm of snow, but less in some localities, has fallen since Monday above approximately 2800 m. New snow is lying on the smooth surface of an old snowpack. This snow remains in some cases prone to triggering on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2800 m. The snowpack will be quite moist. The old snowpack is unfavourably layered. In the last few days hardly any more avalanches were reported. At low and intermediate altitudes from a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying.

In some localities light precipitation. The weather conditions will cause a slight rise in the avalanche danger as the day progresses especially at high altitude.
