Wind slabs
Avalanche prone locations
In particular in northwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2600m.
Danger description
The fresh and older wind slabs represent the main danger. Avalanches can be released by people, but they will be small in most cases. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Caution is to be exercised especially in high Alpine regions.
Careful route selection is recommended.
Wet avalanches as day progresses
As a consequence of solar radiation numerous moist snow slides are to be expected as the day progresses. This applies in all aspects. In addition further individual wet and gliding 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.
