In the West of the Tatras, in the Low Tatras and in the Fatras there is only a small avalanche danger above the treeline. Only 0 to 10 cm of snow has fallen in the last two days, which has caused the formation of smaller wind slabs on the southern slopes. The avalanche danger is only sporadic. Due to the below-average snow cover, only small avalanches or avalanches may occur, mainly in places where older snow is still present. Their danger lies mainly in pushing the victim into exposed or rocky terrain.
0 to 10 cm of new snow fell. The overall snow cover in the mountains is below average, mostly only 10 to 40 cm of snow. Most of it is naturally above the forest belt and in narrow troughs. Smaller slabs and snow pillows of blown snow can also be found here, lying on top of a layer of older, frozen snow at higher altitudes. At lower and middle elevations, new snow is found on a grassy base. Snow cover irregularly spaced - ridges are blown into the subsoil or old hard snow.
