Pre Alps

Due to warmth and solar radiation, glide-snow avalanches and moist slides can be expected

There was intermittent rainfall in late afternoon and the early part of the night which extended up to high altitudes. In the afternoon the SW wind intensified, transported the new snow and loose old snow. The drifts deposited on shady slopes in wind-protected zones are prone to triggering. As a result of the rain the snowpack below 2400 m has been weakend, moist slides and glide-snow avalanches can be expected. Particularly on steep shady slopes above 2200 m the snowpack layering is unfavourable. These avalanche prone locations are not visible to the naked eye. The generally shallow snowpack is moist up to intermediate altitudes. Skiing tours and descents in outlying terrain below the timberline, often below 2000 m, are unrewarding due to the lack of snow. At low altitudes there is often no snow on the ground.

Due to warmth and solar radiation, glide-snow avalanches and moist slides can be expected

Mostly low danger prevails. On steep slopes which have not yet discharged, small glide-snow avalanches can trigger naturally. With ascending altitude the small trigger-sensitive snowdrift accumulations require attentiveness. On very steep sunny slopes small loose-snow avalanches are possible due to solar radiation, especially below 2200 m.

Friday night: Rainfall often up to high alpine regions. In the latter part of the night it will come to an end. Saturday: windy, very mild mountain weather. High-altitude clouds will pass through, dampening the sunshine in the morning. It will remain dry. The W/SW air current will bring mild air masses our way, the zero-degree level will ascend to over 3000 m. At 2000m: 1-9 degrees. Brisk to strong W/SW winds, gusts will be stormy.

Avalanche danger will remain low.
