Danger level

Avalanche Problem
Wet snow

Gliding snow

2500m

 

Moist loose snow slides and gliding avalanches are possible.
On very steep sunny slopes individual moist snow slides and avalanches are possible as the day progresses, but they will be mostly small. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur.
Snowpack
>
At high altitude snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. At low and intermediate altitudes less snow than usual is lying. The snowpack will be stable on shady slopes. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. As a consequence of the moist air the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent towards the evening.
Tendency
The danger of moist avalanches will decrease.
