Wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence.Weak layers in the old snowpack can still be released by individual winter sport participants. Caution is to be exercised in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible in isolated cases. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack indicate poor snowpack stability. <br/> The somewhat older wind slabs are in some cases still prone to triggering, in particular on steep shady slopes above the tree line, as well as in all aspects at elevated altitudes. <br/> On very steep sunny slopes wet and gliding avalanches are possible as the day progresses, this also applies on steep shady slopes at intermediate altitudes. <br/> Extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger is required.Faceted weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, in particular on shady slopes above the tree line, as well as on sunny slopes at elevated altitudes. The old snowpack will be prone to triggering in high Alpine regions. Field observations and snow profiles confirm this situation. <br/> The wind slabs of the weekend are in some cases still prone to triggering. They are poorly bonded with the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes. As a consequence of mild temperatures and solar radiation the snowpack will consolidate during the next few days. <br/> Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack.The weather conditions will foster a gradual strengthening of the near-surface layers. The danger of dry avalanches will decrease gradually. On shady slopes the situation is more dangerous.
