Avalanche forecast for Monday 13 April 2026.

Wet snow represents the main danger. As a consequence of the rain natural wet avalanches are to be expected.

all day it applies above 2800 meter moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two, below considerable avalanche danger, so danger level three.

all day, below 2800 meter, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East. Furthermore, all day, above 2500 meter, we have a persistent weak layer problem. Especially in the aspects West to North to East.

As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase in particular on steep shady slopes below approximately 2500 m. In these regions natural avalanches are to be expected, even large ones. Moist and wet avalanches can additionally in some places be released, even by a single winter sport participant, this also applies on steep west, north and east facing slopes below approximately 2800 m. Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2500 m. In addition the fresh wind slabs in high Alpine regions are capable of being triggered in isolated cases, in particular on near-ridge shady slopes. Wind slabs are mostly small.

And now the snowpack:

The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. Up to 2500 m rain will fall. The rain will give rise to a loss of strength within the snowpack especially on steep shady slopes. Steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2500 m: Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the top section of the old snowpack. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack. Above approximately 2500 m snow will fall. As a consequence of a strong wind, small wind slabs will form in high Alpine regions.

The tendency for Tuesday 14 April 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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