Wind slabs are in some cases still prone to triggering above approximately 2600 m. Wet and gliding snow require caution.
The deep wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m. Avalanches can in very isolated cases reach medium size.
Avalanches can in very isolated cases be triggered in the old snowpack and reach quite a large size. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m.
As a consequence of warming more wet loose snow avalanches are possible at any time, even medium-sized ones. This applies in particular on steep slopes below approximately 2600 m. Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.
Snowpack
dp.10: springtime scenario
The wind slabs are lying on soft layers on wind-protected shady slopes above approximately 2600 m. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced in some places.
The spring-like weather conditions will give rise to thorough wetting of the snowpack below approximately 2600 m.
Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the centre of the snowpack in particular on west, north and east facing slopes. At low altitude only a little snow is lying. In some localities 2 to 5 cm of snow will fall above approximately 2200 m. The wind will be moderate to strong at times over a wide area.
Tendency
On Friday it will be mild over a wide area. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to softening of the snowpack in particular on sunny slopes.
