The snowpack will be well bonded in the early morning. Fresh wind slabs require caution, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas.
As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual gliding avalanches are possible, but they can reach medium size, especially at the base of rock walls and on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. The fresh and older wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in all aspects at elevated altitudes. They are mostly easy to recognise but can be released by large loads in particular. In the regions exposed to heavier precipitation caution is to be exercised in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain.
The wind has transported only a little snow. The fresh wind slabs are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. These are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes above the tree line. The older wind slabs have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. The snowpack will be well bonded until the middle of the day. Temporary increase in danger as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
Moderate, level 2.

gliding snow
Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.
Individual gliding avalanches are possible, even large ones in isolated cases, especially in the regions with a lot of snow below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. <br/> Fresh wind slabs require caution. The fresh wind slabs are small. Isolated avalanche prone locations are to be found on extremely steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and adjacent to ridgelines.
The fresh wind slabs have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. The old snowpack will be moist below the tree line.
The avalanche danger will persist. The snow sport conditions outside marked and open pistes are generally favourable.

favourable situation
The conditions are favourable.
A little snow is lying. Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes, especially adjacent to ridgelines. Such avalanche prone locations are rare and are easy to recognise.
The snowpack will be stable over a wide area. This applies at high altitude. At low and intermediate altitudes hardly any snow is lying.
Low, level 1.

drifting snow
Wind slabs above approximately 2400 m.
Fresh wind slabs can still be released in some cases in particular on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m, in particular adjacent to ridgelines. Avalanches are rather small. Caution is to be exercised in particular in the regions exposed to the foehn wind.
In isolated cases wind slabs are lying on soft layers. This applies at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The old snowpack will be moist below the tree line.
The avalanche conditions are favourable.

gliding snow
In these regions the snowpack is well bonded. The fresh and older wind slabs represent the main danger, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas.
The mostly small wind slabs can be released, especially by large additional loads, in all aspects above the tree line. Such avalanche prone locations are rare and are easy to recognise. Even in moderately steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface, after a clear night in particular. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are possible, but they will be mostly small.
The snowpack will be in most cases stable. Over a wide area fresh snow and wind slabs are lying on a hard crust. At low and intermediate altitudes hardly any snow is lying.
Low, level 1. Temporary increase in danger of gliding avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
