Nock Mountains

Little snow, low avalanche danger.

Little snow, low avalanche danger.

The avalanche danger is low. Small, spontaneous sliding snow avalanches are possible from very steep, as yet undischarged grass mat terrain.

There is often little snow and the lower elevations are becoming increasingly thin. The existing snow cover has been moistened by the rain right up to the summit regions. In the morning hours, the snow surface is partly hard and hardened, during the day it softens on the sunny side. The entire snow cover can slide off on slippery ground. In the shaded summit areas, there are still isolated weak layers of angular crystals in the snow cover.

Wednesday night will be partly foggy in the valleys, but only slightly cloudy above the fog cover. On the mountains it will be very sunny and mild on Wednesday. The air will be extremely dry and visibility will be good. Temperature at 2000m: 4 to 8 degrees, at 3000m: around +1 degree. High wind: weak to moderate from the south-west.

Little change, the avalanche danger remains low. Isolated small sliding snow avalanches are still possible.
