Wind-drifted snow

2200m

 

A mostly favourable avalanche situation will prevail. Fresh and older wind slabs require caution.
The hard wind slabs of Monday can still be released in particular on very steep, little used north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised at their margins in particular. They are lying on weak layers in particular on wind-protected shady slopes. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. In very isolated cases the avalanches in these loacations are medium-sized. As a consequence of new snow and a light to moderate easterly wind, further wind slabs formed from the middle of the day adjacent to ridgelines on north and west facing slopes. The more recent wind slabs are in many cases very small but prone to triggering.

Very steep grassy slopes above approximately 2000 m: In addition a latent danger of gliding avalanches exists.

Monday: Slight increase in danger of moist snow slides as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Hardly any decrease in avalanche danger on wind-loaded slopes.
