More recent wind slabs are rather small and can only be released in isolated cases. Avalanches can additionally in some places be released in the weakly bonded old snow at high altitude. These avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. They are very rare but are difficult to recognise.

In some localities 2 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since yesterday above approximately 1800 m. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitude. The weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to moistening of the snowpack, in particular at intermediate and high altitudes. In particular at low and intermediate altitudes only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.

Fresh wind slabs require caution.
