Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.As a consequence of fresh snow and a gathering storm force northwesterly wind, easily released wind slabs will form. This applies in all aspects. In particular in areas close to the tree line and above the tree line avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and the danger is greater. The fresh wind slabs are in some cases thick, especially in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain above the tree line. They are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of natural avalanches being released will increase. Mostly these are medium-sized. In addition there is a danger of gliding avalanches. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m as well as on sunny slopes. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. Snow sport activities outside marked and open pistes call for very extensive experience and great restraint. The avalanche situation is more favourable in highly frequented off-piste terrain.The fresh wind slabs are poorly bonded with the old snowpack. They are lying on soft layers. They are lying on surface hoar. No distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack.Increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of fresh snow and strong wind.

In particular transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack are dangerous. These avalanche prone locations are barely recognisable for beginners. In little used backcountry terrain avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and the danger is greater. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and careful route selection.In particular in the north 5 to 10 cm of snow, and up to 15 cm in some localities, will fall.
