Due to mild temperatures and lacking outgoing nocturnal radiation, wet-snow avalanches
Avalanche danger is moderate. Due to a throughly wet snowpack, naturally triggered wet slides and avalanches are possible in zones which have not yet discharged. On steep grassy slopes, glide-snow avalanches still threaten. Isolated small-to-medium avalanches can still be triggered in extremely steep terrain.
The old snowpack is weakened due to rain impact and lack of nocturnal outgoing radiation, softens further during the daytime. Only above 2400 m was there some fresh snowfall and drifts, at low and intermediate altitudes the snowpack is often gone. Avalanche Warning Services no longer have as much information from these regions.
Nocturnal hours: dispersed clouds, hardly any outgoing longwave radiation. Sunday: adequate conditions, possibly reduced visibility, brief showers in the afternoon, snowfall level at 2400 m. At 2000 m: 0-6 degrees, light winds.
On Monday, heavily overcast skies, rainy during the afternoon. snowfall level descending from 2400 to 2000 m. Due to lack of nocturnal outgoing radiation the snowpack cannot freeze, making wet-snow avalanches possible.
