In sintesi

Warm and sunny weather means that hazard will increase during the day as the sun comes out and temperatures rise.

Avalanche Summary

The likelihood of loose wet avalanches on sun-affected slopes will increase throughout the day as the sun comes out and temperatures rise.

Snowpack Summary

Sun exposed slopes in the alpine and all aspects at treeline and below are becoming moist to wet during the heat of the day. In these areas, spring conditions are in effect; the avalanche hazard will fluctuate greatly depending on the strength of the overnight freeze and how quickly the snowpack is warmed up each day. Dry snow may still be found on shady slopes in the alpine. At these locations, 30-50 cm of well settled snow overlies a layer of facets (sugary snow) that was buried around March 10th.
