Up to 5 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen above approximately 2000 m. Towards its surface, the snowpack is largely stable and its surface has a crust that is strong in many cases. Even a small avalanche can sweep snow sport participants along and give rise to falls. In the event of solar radiation this applies in particular on very steep slopes.
In some regions 5 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall from midday above approximately 2500 m. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will soften later than the day before. Below approximately 2000 m hardly any snow is lying.
