Avalanche Problem
Gliding snow above 2600m above 1800m, E-SE-S-SW-W
Wet snow above 2800m, E-SE-S-SW-W
Increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the field.
Early and late morning: Low avalanche danger will prevail.
Midday and afternoon: Slight increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Gliding avalanches and wet snow slides are the main danger. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m, but in isolated cases also on extremely steep shady slopes below approximately 2800 m.
In addition a low (level 1) danger of dry slab avalanches exists. This applies in particular on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m. The avalanches are rather small and can only be released by large loads.
Snowpack
dp 2: gliding snow
dp 10: springtime scenario
A generally clear night. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will already soften in the late morning. This applies in particular on sunny slopes.
In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack on shady slopes, especially above approximately 2400 m in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow.
At intermediate altitudes hardly any snow is lying. At low altitude no snow is lying.
Tendency
Increase in danger of gliding avalanches and snow slides as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
