Some fresh snow and the mostly small wind slabs formed by the sometimes strong westerly wind represent the main danger. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines. Afternoon: As a consequence of solar radiation more small dry loose snow avalanches are possible. This applies on extremely steep sunny slopes.
Up to 10 cm of snow has fallen above approximately 1300 m. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2000 m. The old snowpack will be moist. This applies in all aspects at low and intermediate altitudes. A little snow is lying.
