The danger of wet and gliding avalanches in all aspects is within the uppermost range of danger level 2 (moderate). As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase in particular on steep slopes below the tree line. A clear night will be followed in the early morning by quite favourable conditions generally, but the danger of wet and gliding avalanches will increase later. As the temperature drops there will be a gradual decrease in the avalanche danger towards the evening.
The snowpack is moist and its surface has a melt-freeze crust that is strong in many cases. The surface of the snowpack will soften during the day. As a consequence of sharply rising temperatures and a dangerous avalanche situation will develop.
