The danger of moist and wet avalanches will decrease gradually, but only during the night.
The danger of wet and gliding avalanches will decrease gradually. Until the temperature drops more avalanches are possible until late in the night, even medium-sized ones. Weak layers exist in the snowpack in particular on wind-loaded slopes. This applies on steep northeast, north and northwest facing slopes above approximately 2200 m adjacent to ridgelines. These avalanche prone locations are difficult to recognise. They can be released in isolated cases, but mostly only by large additional loads, in high Alpine regions. As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase a little in particular on steep slopes at intermediate altitudes.
Snowpack
dp 10: springtime scenario
The older wind slabs have bonded well with the old snowpack. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack on shady slopes, in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. In some places wind slabs are lying on soft layers, in particular on shady slopes above approximately 2400 m. At low altitude a little snow is lying.
Tendency
Slight decrease in avalanche danger as the snowfall level drops.

Wet snow, N-NE-E-SE-S-SW-W-NW
Moist and wet avalanches require caution. As a consequence of rain an unfavourable avalanche situation will still be encountered.
The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust only at high altitudes and will soften quickly. The danger of wet and gliding avalanches will decrease gradually, but only during the night. As a consequence of the rain, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase quickly in particular on rocky slopes at low and intermediate altitudes. In particular on steep sunny slopes and on wind-loaded slopes small to medium-sized moist avalanches are possible until the temperature drops.
Snowpack
dp 2: gliding snow
In some places fresh snow and wind slabs are lying on old snow containing large grains. This applies in particular on shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The old snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations at low and intermediate altitudes. At low altitude no snow is lying on south facing slopes.
Tendency
Slight decrease in avalanche danger as the snowfall level drops.
