Avalanche forecast for Sunday 3 May 2026.

Slight increase in danger of wet avalanches in the course of the day.

all day it applies low avalanche danger, so danger level one.

all day, above 2500 meter, we have a wet snow problem. Especially in the aspects East to South to West.

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 people, especially on very steep sunny slopes above approximately 2500 m, this also applies on very steep shady slopes below approximately 2500 m in gullies and bowls. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases and mostly by large additional loads in particular on very steep shady slopes, in particular above approximately 2500 m. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface. This is the final hazard map for the winter 2025/26. Current information and announcements are posted on our blog. We wish all users of the Euregio Avalanche Report an accident-free summer season.

And now the snowpack:

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be good over a wide area. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. Shady slopes above approximately 2500 m: Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the old snowpack at elevated altitudes. Below approximately 2000 m no snow is lying. Between approximately 2000 and 2500 m only a little snow is now lying.

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

The tendency for Monday 4 May 2026 indicates a steady avalanche danger.

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