As the day progresses a moderate danger of wet avalanches will prevail.
The early morning will see quite favourable conditions mostly. Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2800 m and adjacent to ridgelines in all aspects. Older wind slabs in very steep terrain are to be bypassed as far as possible.
As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be an increase in the danger of wet avalanches. Small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet avalanches are possible. This applies in particular on west, south and east facing slopes below approximately 2800 m, as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2200 m.
Snowpack
dp.10: springtime scenario
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
The wind slabs have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. They are in individual cases still prone to triggering at elevated altitudes.
On Tuesday it will be very mild. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will already soften in the late morning. The spring-like weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to significant softening of the snowpack. This applies on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m, as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2200 m.
Less snow than usual is lying.
Tendency
The conditions are spring-like. Increase in danger of wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.
