drifting snow
Fresh wind slabs require caution.
In the last four days mostly small wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines as well as at high altitude. These avalanche prone locations are to be found especially in places that are protected from the wind above approximately 2400 m. Winter sport participants can release avalanches in some places, including medium-sized ones. The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.
The old snowpack will be generally well bonded. Wind slabs are lying on soft layers. Below approximately 2200 m only a little snow is lying.
As a consequence of the fresh snow the prevalence of avalanche prone locations will increase during the course of the night.

Fresh wind slabs require caution. Moist loose snow avalanches are to be expected from the afternoon.
The fresh wind slabs are lying on unfavourable layers. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in northwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2500 m and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases, including medium-sized ones. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.
Fresh and older wind slabs are in many cases small and can only be released by large loads in most cases. The old snowpack will be quite well bonded.
The conditions are favourable over a wide area.

favourable situation
wet snow
The snowpack remains generally well bonded.
The snowpack remains favourable at intermediate altitudes. Until the temperature falls small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist loose snow avalanches are possible.
The surface of the snowpack is frozen, but not to a significant depth and will soften during the day.
The snowpack will be quite stable.

From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying in all altitude zones. The avalanche conditions are generally favourable.
Currently there are favourable conditions generally. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines in northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2000 m. Wind slabs can in isolated cases be released by large loads. Elsewhere, avalanches can scarcely be released.
In the last few days rather small wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines. These have bonded quite well with the old snowpack.
Hardly any increase in avalanche danger.

From a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying in all altitude zones. The avalanche conditions are generally favourable.
Currently there are favourable conditions generally. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines in northwest to north to northeast facing aspects. Wind slabs can still in isolated cases be released by large loads. Elsewhere, avalanches can scarcely be released.
Over a wide area 10 cm of snow, but less in some localities, fell above approximately 2000 m. In the last few days rather small wind slabs formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines. These have bonded quite well with the old snowpack.
Hardly any increase in avalanche danger.

Low, level 1.
The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep northwest to north to northeast facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. The wind slabs represent the main danger. These avalanche prone locations are rather rare and are clearly recognisable to the trained eye.
Below approximately 2200 m hardly any snow is lying.
As a consequence of fresh snow and strong wind the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase during the course of the night.

The wind slabs are easy for the trained eye to recognise and to be assessed with care and prudence.
The old snowpack remains in most cases well bonded. In some cases various wind slab layers are lying on the smooth surface of an old snowpack.
Fresh and older wind slabs represent the main danger. Below approximately 2500 m small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist loose snow avalanches are possible.
The snowpack remains in most cases favourable.
