Danger level
Danger Level 1 - Low above 2600m
Danger Level 2 - Moderate above 2600m
Avalanche Problem
Wet snow above 2600m, E-SE-S-SW-W

The early morning will see sometimes favourable avalanche conditions, but the danger of wet avalanches will increase later.

The avalanche danger will already be elevated in the early morning, in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2200 m as well as on shady slopes below approximately 1800 m. On sunny slopes the snowpack will freeze with a strong crust only above approcimately 2200 m. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
Midday and afternoon:
As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be an increase in the danger of moist and wet snow slides. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m.

Snowpack

dp 10: springtime scenario

Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced over a wide area. On steep sunny slopes the snowpack will freeze with a strong crust only above approcimately 2200 m. The surface of the snowpack will soften earlier than the day before. This applies in all aspects at intermediate altitudes as well as on sunny slopes below approximately 3000 m. The old snowpack will be stable over a wide area. The wind slabs of last week have bonded well with the old snowpack. At low altitude hardly any snow is lying.

Tendency

In some regions increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of fresh snow and wind.
