Eastern Carniche Alps

At elevated altitudes a moderate avalanche danger will prevail. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.

At elevated altitudes a moderate avalanche danger will prevail. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.

Weak layers in the old snowpack represent the main danger. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. In addition the wind slabs in particular at elevated altitudes are prone to triggering in isolated cases still. Avalanches can be released, mostly by large loads.

Some snow has fallen in some localities. The snowpack remains subject to considerable local variations. Weak layers exist in the snowpack. The weather conditions gave rise to consolidation of the snowpack at low and intermediate altitudes.

The weather will be partly cloudy.
