Wet and gliding snow represent the main danger.
The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.
In some regions light rain below approximately 2000 m. Individual wet loose snow avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small. Afternoon: As a consequence of the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet loose snow avalanches being released will increase on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m. In addition further small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible.
In very isolated cases avalanches can be triggered in the old snowpack and reach medium size, this applies in particular in case of a large load. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions.
Snowpack
dp 2: gliding snow
dp 10: springtime scenario
At low altitude no snow is lying. At intermediate altitudes the snow is wet. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced in some case. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust only at high altitudes and will soften quickly. Weak layers exist in the old snowpack, in particular on steep, little used north facing slopes.
Tendency
Hardly any increase in avalanche danger. Gliding avalanches are the main danger.
