The snowpack will be in most cases stable.
As a consequence of a sometimes moderate wind from northerly directions, mostly small wind slabs formed in the last few days in some localities. These avalanche prone locations are to be found especially in steep terrain at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions and in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. They are mostly easy to recognise. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases and mostly by large additional loads on steep shady slopes. At lower altitudes and below the tree line the snowpack is well bonded.
Snowpack
At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions less snow than usual is lying. As a consequence of low temperatures, solar radiation and the occasionally moderate wind, the snow drift accumulations stabilised during the last few days, in particular on sunny slopes. Here the snowpack is better bonded.
The old snowpack will be prone to triggering in some places, especially on very steep shady slopes, and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls especially at elevated altitudes.
Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
