Avalanches can penetrate deep layers and reach large size. <br/> As a consequence of the rain more frequent small to medium-sized wet and gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2000 m. As the snowfall level rises these avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent as the day progresses.Faceted weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, especially on west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line, and below approximately 2600 m, in isolated cases also on sunny slopes at elevated altitudes. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack serve as an alarm indicating the danger. <br/> 5 to 10 cm of snow will fall. As a consequence of new snow and a strong wind from northwesterly directions, further wind slabs will form. The mostly small wind slabs are bonding poorly with the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes and generally at elevated altitudes. Up to 2000 m rain will fall from the afternoon.A sometimes treacherous avalanche situation will persist. Distinct weak layers in the old snowpack necessitate defensive route selection. <br/> As a consequence of rising temperatures, rain and the storm force northwesterly wind, the snowpack can not consolidate.dangerRatingMapSimplified danger rating map of the regionhttps://avalanche.report/albina_files/2022-02-16/2022-02-15_16-00-00/3cc82677-fff9-40bc-ab33-540ce3ee0efc.jpgwebsiteLink to region on the websitehttps://avalanche.report/bulletin/2022-02-16?region=3cc82677-fff9-40bc-ab33-540ce3ee0efc2022-02-15T16:00:00.016015Z2022-02-15T23:00:00Z2022-02-16T23:00:00ZPrealpsBondone and StivoVallarsaFolgaria - LaveroneSouthern LagoraiLedro ValleyPaganellaMarzola - ValsuganaPine' - Mocheni Valleyconsiderabletreelineno_ratingno_ratinglowtreelineno_ratingno_ratingdp6wind_drifted_snowENSENENWWSSWtreelineconsiderableconsiderable233decreasing2022-02-16T23:00:00Z2022-02-17T23:00:00ZWind slabs require caution.Since yesterday the wind has been moderate to strong in some localities.
