Avalanche forecast for Thursday 12 March 2026.

Weakly bonded old snow on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes.

all day it applies above 1900 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 1900 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects North-West to North to North-East.

In very isolated cases dry avalanches can be released in the old snowpack and reach medium size, especially above approximately 1900 m on northwest, north and northeast facing slopes. This applies even in case of a single winter sport participant in isolated cases. As a consequence of the moist air individual moist and wet avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small. Caution is to be exercised in particular at the base of rock walls on very steep west and east facing slopes. Many starting zones have released the snow.

And now the snowpack:

Distinct weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on northeast, north and northwest facing slopes. This applies especially above approximately 1900 m. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced in some case. The weather conditions will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack especially on very steep sunny slopes.

We have the following danger patterns: dp.10: springtime scenario, dp.1: deep persistent weak layer.

The tendency for Friday 13 March 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

Have a nice day and don't forget to be careful!
