New snow
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in west to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2600m.
Danger description
As a consequence of a gathering strong southwesterly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs will form in the course of the day at elevated altitudes. Dry avalanches can be released, even by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. In isolated cases avalanches can also release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach large size. Backcountry touring calls for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.
Wet avalanches
Wet avalanches are possible. From starting zones where no previous releases have taken place in particular on north and east facing slopes these can in isolated cases reach large size.
Remarks
The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.
