Danger level

2400m

Persistent weak layer		2400m
Wet snow		2600m

Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases in particular on steep shady slopes. As the day progresses more small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist snow slides and avalanches are possible.

Individual weak layers exist in the snowpack. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Avalanches can penetrate even deep layers and reach medium size in isolated cases.
As a consequence of warming during the day individual moist small and medium sized avalanches are possible below approximately 2600 m. This applies especially on west, south and southeast facing slopes. Mostly avalanches are small.

Snowpack

dp.10: springtime scenario

As a consequence of falling temperatures and low relative humidity a crust formed on the surface during the night. In its middle, the snowpack is weak in some cases and its surface has a crust that is not capable of bearing a load. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases.
Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to softening of the snowpack in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m.

Tendency

Slight decrease in avalanche danger as the temperature drops.

Danger level

Wet snow

As the day progresses small moist snow slides and avalanches are possible.

As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual small moist snow slides and avalanches are possible. This applies in particular on steep sunny slopes. Mostly avalanches are only small.

Snowpack

The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to increasing softening of the snowpack over a wide area. Wind slabs are now only very rarely prone to triggering.
At low and intermediate altitudes a little snow is lying.

Tendency

Slight decrease in avalanche danger as the temperature drops.
