Wet snow avalanche possible due to thawing
The snowpack of the last snowfall has become unstable as it warms up. The danger of wet snow avalanches has increased, especially on extreme terrain. On grassy slopes, gliding avalanches will be possible.
As the weather warms up, the snowpack from the last snowfall is rapidly melting.
Wednesday will clear, with only a few shallow clouds forming during the day. Winds will be light. Temperatures will be around 6 °C at 1000 m and 4 °C at 1500 m in the middle of the day.
Typical spring conditions are expected over the next few days. The snowpack will freeze overnight, but during the day, with sunshine and high temperatures, the snow will change and melt more quickly.
