In the high alpine regions, the larger amounts of new snow from the last four days and the drifted snow are still prone to triggering in some cases. In addition, weak layers are embedded in the near-surface layers of the old snowpack, especially on steep north-facing slopes. Avalanche observations from recent days confirm that these weak layers are prone to triggering.
A crust has formed beneath the new snow. Below this, the old snowpack is moist up to high altitudes. As a consequence of solar radiation, loose snow avalanches are to be expected on very steep slopes, especially in the regions with a lot of fresh snow. Wet snow avalanches, which can sweep away the entire snowpack, are possible in isolated cases, especially as the day progresses. This applies particularly to north-facing slopes between 2200 and 2600 m, where the snowpack is becoming saturated for the first time.
