Avalanche Activity

In the regions exposed to the foehn wind strong southerly wind: Fresh wind slabs require caution.

The strong wind will transport the snow. The fresh wind slabs can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size, in particular on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Gullies and bowls are especially unfavourable. The prevalence of the avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. In addition a latent danger of gliding avalanches exists, in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m. These can reach medium size. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. As a consequence of warming moist snow slides are possible. This applies in particular at low and intermediate altitudes.

Snowpack Structure

Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers at elevated altitudes. Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the top section of the old snowpack on west, north and east facing slopes. This applies above approximately 2400 m. Towards its base, the snowpack is largely stable. The old snowpack will be moist below approximately 2200 m.

Tendency

As a consequence of the strong to storm force foehn wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form on Sunday.
