The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on extremely steep slopes above approximately 2600 m and in gullies and bowls. The wind slabs can be released in isolated cases, but mostly only by large additional loads,.
Snowpack
The snowpack will be generally well bonded. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust and will hardly soften at all. In all aspects in all altitude zones only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year. Below approximately 2000 m from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying.
Tendency
The danger will persist.

Avalanche Problem
Wind slab
2600m
A mostly favourable avalanche situation will prevail. Wind slabs at elevated altitudes.
The wind slabs of the last few days can still be released in some cases. They are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m. Such avalanche prone locations are rather rare and are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Even a small avalanche can sweep winter sport participants along and give rise to falls, caution is to be exercised on extremely steep slopes. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of wet avalanches during the day being released will increase a little.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
The wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Hardly any weak layers exist in the old snowpack. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual moistening of the snowpack. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year.
Tendency
Some rain will fall on Tuesday in some regions. For this reason the danger of wet avalanches will increase.
