Avalanche forecast for Monday 27 April 2026.

Increase in danger of wet avalanches in the course of the day.

earlier in the day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one. later in the day it applies above 2800 meter low avalanche danger, so danger level one, below moderate avalanche danger, so danger level two.

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

As the day progresses as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be only a slight increase in the danger of wet avalanches. Wet avalanches can in isolated cases be released by a single winter sport participant. This applies on very steep northwest, north and northeast facing slopes below approximately 2500 m, as well as on very steep west and east facing slopes below approximately 2800 m, but in isolated cases also on very steep sunny slopes at elevated altitudes. Avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2500 m. These places are very rare but are difficult to recognise.

And now the snowpack:

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced at times. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften earlier than the day before. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise to gradual moistening of the snowpack at intermediate and high altitudes. Shady slopes above approximately 2500 m: Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack at elevated altitudes. On steep sunny slopes as well as below approximately 1800 m hardly any snow is lying.

The tendency for Tuesday 28 April 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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