Increase in danger of moist and wet avalanches as a consequence of warming. The wind slabs of the last few days are to be evaluated with care and prudence.
Increase in danger of moist and wet avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. In particular on steep sunny slopes avalanches can in many cases reach medium size. Backcountry tours and off-piste skiing should be concluded timely.
The wind slabs of the last few days can be released by a single winter sport participant. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In high Alpine regions the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. The wind slabs are to be bypassed as far as possible.
In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes. These avalanche prone locations are rather rare and are therefore difficult to recognise.
Snowpack
dp.10: springtime scenario
Over a wide area 15 to 30 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since Thursday. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing moistening of the snowpack in particular on steep sunny slopes. The sometimes new snow-covered wind slabs of the last few days remain for the foreseeable future prone to triggering at intermediate and high altitudes.
In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes.
Tendency
5 to 10 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall on Monday above approximately 1800 m.
