Gradual increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of fresh snow and wind.
As a consequence of fresh snow and a strong to storm force southwesterly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs will form in all aspects. As the day progresses the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. Fresh snow and wind slabs can be released, even by a single winter sport participant. Especially from starting zones at higher altitudes medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large natural avalanches are possible. Below approximately 2400 m medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large gliding avalanches are possible.
Snowpack
dp 6: cold, loose snow and wind
dp 2: gliding snow
20 to 30 cm of snow. will fall from late morning above approximately 1800 m. 40 to 60 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall until late in the night above approximately 1600 m. Fresh snow and wind slabs are lying on a moist old snowpack. By late in the night the previously small wind slabs will increase in size once again. The wind will be strong to storm force.
Tendency
Further increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of fresh snow and strong wind. The conditions are unfavourable for ski touring, freeriding and snowshoe hiking. Fresh snow and wind slabs require caution.
