Danger level
Avalanche Problem
Gliding snow
Thus far only isolated gliding avalanches and wet snow slides are possible.
On extremely steep grassy slopes more gliding avalanches are possible from midday. They are rather small. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.
Shady slopes: The old snowpack will be generally stable. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.

Snowpack
>
The snowpack remains in most cases well bonded.
Shady slopes and high altitudes: The snowpack consists of faceted crystals and its surface has a crust.
Sunny slopes: The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften later than the day before.
Above the tree line there are 25 to 40 cm of snow, and even more in some localities. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. At low altitude hardly any snow is lying.

Tendency
Monday: Slight increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as the moisture increases.
