Danger level
Avalanche Problem
Wind-drifted snow above 2200m, E-SE-S-SW-W
High altitudes and the high Alpine regions: Fresh wind slabs represent the main danger.
The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field. As a consequence of fresh snow and a sometimes moderate northeasterly wind, rather small wind slabs will form in places that are protected from the wind. This applies in particular at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. Mostly the avalanches are rather small but in some cases easily released.
As a consequence of solar radiation individual moist loose snow avalanches are possible, in particular on steep sunny slopes.
Snowpack
dp 6: cold, loose snow and wind
As a consequence of the strong wind the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. The fresh wind slabs are lying on a crust on east to south to west facing aspects at intermediate and high altitudes. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack. At low altitude no snow is lying.
Tendency
Hardly any decrease in avalanche danger.
