In particular in the vicinity of peaks snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. Intermediate and high altitudes: Weak layers exist in the snowpack especially on west, north and northeast facing slopes. In the vicinity of peaks snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. In places that are protected from the wind in all altitude zones a lot of snow is lying for the time of year.
Slight increase in danger of moist and wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur.
The surface of the snowpack is frozen, but not to a significant depth and will soften earlier than the day before. The weather conditions will cause a slight rise in the danger of moist avalanches as the day progresses in particular at intermediate altitudes. In particular above approximately 2200 m: Weak layers in the old snowpack can still be released in some place by winter sport participants, after an overcast night in particular.
