Avalanche Activity

Wet avalanches are expected to occur at almost all altitudes as a result of the strong warming.

In the Tatras and Low Tatras above the forest zone there is an CONSIDERABLE avalanche danger, 3rd degree. Wet snow is the defining avalanche problem. Avalanche release is already possible with a small additional load and spontaneous avalanches are also expected. They will occur mainly on steep slopes and in couloirs where most of the snow fell during the last snowfall. At altitudes up to 2000 m above sea level, gliding avalanches may also occur on grassy slopes.

Snowpack Structure

As a result of the strong warming (the 0°C isotherm rises up to 2400 m above sea level), the snow cover is mostly wet. The exception is the northern orientations at the highest altitudes of the Tatras, where there are still snow slabs, pillows and drifts of wet to dry snow. Wind-exposed ridges are often blown onto hard to icy surfaces. Continuous snow cover is found from 1100 (1200) m above sea level, reaching 100 to 300 cm above the tree line.

Tendency

INCREASING during the day when it gets warmer
