Avalanche Problem
Gliding snow

 

Gliding avalanches are possible in isolated cases as before.
The early morning will see favourable avalanche conditions. Until the evening only isolated small gliding avalanches are possible. Explanation: "these" may only stand for "these avalanches" can occur in particular in starting zones where previous releases have taken place. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep sunny slopes in all altitude zones.
Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.
Snowpack
>
From early morning the weather will be partly cloudy.
Steep southeast, south and southwest facing slopes: The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will already soften in the late morning.
Shady slopes and above approximately 2000 m: The surface of the snowpack will hardly soften at all. There is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
Tendency
Wednesday: 15 to 20 cm of snow will fall above approximately 1200 m. Rapid increase in danger of dry avalanches as a consequence of new snow and wind.
