Danger description
The new snow and wind slabs can be released easily, even by a single winter sport participant,. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. Natural avalanches are possible in particular in the afternoon. Avalanches can in isolated cases penetrate deep layers and reach large size. Backcountry touring and other off-piste activities call for experience in the assessment of avalanche danger.
Wet avalanches
As a consequence of the rain medium-sized and large natural wet avalanches are to be expected below approximately 2200 m.
