Danger description

As a consequence of new snow and a gathering strong southerly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs will form. They can in some places be released by people and reach medium size. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. In the afternoon danger level 3 (considerable) will be reached.
Fresh wind slabs are to be avoided.

Wet avalanches

As the day progresses as a consequence of the rain there will be an increase in the danger of wet avalanches. In particular on north facing slopes small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet avalanches are to be expected below approximately 2200 m. Meticulous route selection is recommended.
