Low avalanche danger, occasional small wet snow slides possible

Low avalanche danger, occasional small wet snow slides possible

The avalanche risk is low. As the day warms up, small wet snow slides may occur occasionally, especially from multiple starting zones that have not yet been fully discharged. The risk of being swept away and falling should be taken into account.

The thin snowpack barely freezes on the surface, softens quickly and loses firmness during the day as it becomes increasingly wet. There is only a little snow left and the snow is melting.

During the night it will often be clear, but in places a high fog-like cloud cover may spread. During the day, there will be a mix of sun and (spring) clouds, with a thick, high fog-like cloud cover possible in the peripheral mountains. Occasionally, some Sahara dust may cause slightly cloudy conditions. However, it will remain largely dry. It will be milder, with temperatures between +3 and +7 degrees at 2000 metres. The wind will shift from west to south during the daytime changes and gain some strength.

Monday will continue to be mild, with often strong southerly winds. The wet snow problem will persist.
