There is wind-blown snow in northeastern lee areas above the thaw limit that could be affected by skiers. Especially at higher elevations, there is greater uncertainty about how much snow has been deposited in the lee areas.

On Tuesday, there will be little precipitation, and fresh wind-blown snow slabs will be thin. However, be aware that varying wind directions may cause wind-blown snow to be found in different compass directions.

If the sun comes out, it may weaken the fresh new snow and trigger naturally occurring wet avalanches in steep, sun-exposed terrain.

Det finnes fokksnø i nordøstvendte leheng over mildværsgrensa som kan påvirkes av skikjørere. Særlig høyt til fjells er det større usikkerhet rundt hvor mye snø er blitt lastet inn i leheng. Tirsdag kommer det lite nedbør og ferske fokksnøflak vil være tyne. Vær likevel oppmerksom på at varierende vindretning kan gjøre at fokksnøen finnes i ulike himmelretninger.

Dersom sola titter frem, kan den svekke den ferske nysnøen og gi naturlig utløste våte skred i bratt, solvendt terreng.

Lørdag og søndag har det kommet noe nysnø i regionen, til dels i kombinasjon med kraftig vind fra vest og nordvest. Før dette fuktet mildvær og regn snøen høyt til fjells. Det er lite snø i lavlandet og skibæring må til mange steder.

When the sun softens the new snow during the day, some avalanches may release naturally. Keep a safe distance from sun-exposed steep terrain and cliffs. At higher elevations, mostly in northeast-facing shaded slopes, there is wind-drifted snow. This is probably well stabilized now, but as a skier, it may still be possible to trigger it in certain areas. Keep a safe distance from cornices, as it is difficult to predict when they will break.
