A dangerous avalanche situation will prevail. Wet snow represents the main danger. As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase in particular below approximately 2500 m, especially on steep west, north and east facing slopes. In these regions natural avalanches are to be expected, even large ones. Dry and wet avalanches can additionally in some places be released, even by a single winter sport participant. This applies on steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2500 m. Avalanches can be triggered in deep layers and reach large size. In addition the fresh wind slabs in high Alpine regions are capable of being triggered in some cases, in particular on near-ridge shady slopes. 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. 10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall above approximately 2500 m. As a consequence of a strong wind, sometimes easily released wind slabs will form in high Alpine regions. 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. Decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the snowfall level drops. Above approximately 2000 m snow will fall in some regions. 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 3 DP3 DP1 wet snow old snow steady 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z 2026-04-14T15:00:00Z Wet snow represents the main danger. As a consequence of the rain natural wet avalanches are to be expected. 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. 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.

Slight decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the snowfall level drops.

The danger of moist and wet avalanches will already be elevated in the early morning. This applies on steep shady slopes below approximately 2500 m, as well as on very steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m. Wet avalanches can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant. Avalanches can penetrate deep layers and reach large size. Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2500 m. Such avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. Especially transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack are unfavourable. The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. This applies in all aspects below approximately 2500 m, as well as on sunny slopes at elevated altitudes. The snowpack will be weakly bonded in some places. 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. Towards its base, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals. Slight decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the temperature drops. Down to 2000 m snow will fall in some regions. 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 DP10 DP1 wet snow steady 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z 2026-04-14T15:00:00Z Wet snow represents the main danger. Wet avalanches can in some places be released by small loads, especially on very steep slopes. Avalanches can in very isolated cases penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack and reach medium size, in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2000 m. The snowpack will be wet all the way through over a wide area. As a consequence of mild temperatures and high relative humidity the snowpack can not consolidate. The snowpack remains weakly bonded in some places. Towards its base, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals, especially on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Slight decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the temperature drops. Down to 2000 m snow will fall in some regions. 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 DP3 DP1 wet snow steady 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z 2026-04-14T15:00:00Z Wet snow represents the main danger. The danger of moist and wet avalanches will already exist in the early morning. This applies on very steep sunny slopes in particular below approximately 2800 m, as well as in all aspects below approximately 2500 m. As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of avalanches being released will increase especially on steep shady slopes below approximately 2500 m. Avalanches can in isolated cases penetrate near-ground layers of the snowpack and reach medium size. In very isolated cases dry avalanches can also be released in the old snowpack. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2500 m. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. The surface of the snowpack will freeze very little and will already be soft in the early morning. Some rain will fall in some regions. These weather conditions will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack. Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack, especially on steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2500 m. The danger of wet avalanches will persist. 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2026-04-12T15:00:00Z 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 DP3 DP1 wet snow steady 2026-04-13T15:00:00Z 2026-04-14T15:00:00Z Wet snow requires caution. As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of wet avalanches being released will increase. This applies in all aspects. Avalanches are rather small but easily released. Avalanches can in isolated cases release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach medium size. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be severely restricted. The surface of the snowpack will cool hardly at all during the overcast night and will already be soft in the early morning. Some rain will fall. These weather conditions will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack. The danger of wet avalanches will persist.
