Avalanche Problem
Persistent weak layer
2200m
Wind slab
2200m


Weakly bonded old snow and wet snow require caution.

More recent wind slabs are to be assessed with care and prudence. The avalanche prone locations are sometimes covered with new snow and are difficult to recognise. Additionally in some places avalanches can also penetrate deep layers and reach quite a large size. Increase in danger of dry and wet avalanches in particular in the regions exposed to precipitation.

Snowpack

The Avalanche Warning Service currently has only a small amount of information that has been collected in the high Alpine regions, so that the avalanche danger should be investigated especially thoroughly in the relevant locality.

Tendency

Up to 2000 m and above rain will fall on Monday over a wide area. In addition the danger of dry and wet avalanches will increase.
