Winter sport participants can release avalanches only in isolated cases. The fresh wind slabs are mostly small but can be released in isolated cases. They are to be evaluated with care and prudence on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines.
Avalanches can additionally in very isolated cases be released in the weakly bonded old snow at high altitude. These avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes and at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. They are very rare but are difficult to recognise.
In many places there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
dp.1: deep persistent weak layer
In the south up to 10 cm of snow fell on Wednesday. The wind will transport only a little snow. In particular at elevated altitudes mostly small wind slabs formed.
In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack, in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitude.
Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack in particular on very steep sunny slopes.
The conditions remain favourable.
