A precarious avalanche situation will be encountered in some regions.
The snow sport conditions outside marked and open pistes between approximately 1900 and 2300 m are precarious. Even single winter sport participants can release avalanches. This applies in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow, as well as at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Avalanches can penetrate deep layers and reach dangerously large size. Remotely triggered avalanches are possible.
In addition the extensive wind slabs of the last few days in particular at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions are prone to triggering in some cases still. The prevalence of avalanche prone locations and likelihood of triggering will increase with altitude.
The danger of gliding avalanches will persist. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. Extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and great restraint are required.
Snowpack
dp.7: snow-poor zones in snow-rich surrounding
dp.2: gliding snow
Above approximately 1200 m snow will fall in particular in the west and in the north. In some regions 20 to 30 cm of snow will fall. This applies in particular in the west and in the northwest. The wind will be moderate to strong.
Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack. This applies in particular between approximately 1900 and 2300 m in all aspects. Towards its base, the snowpack is faceted.
The wind slabs of the last few days are lying on soft layers, especially at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions.
The snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes.
Tendency
The conditions remain precarious.
