More frequent small to medium-sized loose snow avalanches are to be expected. Wind slabs in the high Alpine regions.
Small to medium-sized loose snow avalanches are to be expected as a consequence of the new snow. In the event of prolonged bright spells this applies on extremely steep slopes and.
The new snow-covered wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases above approximately 2600 m, caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines, as well as at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. On the Main Alpine Ridge and in high Alpine regions the likelihood of avalanches is a little higher. Avalanches can reach medium size in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation.
Only isolated gliding avalanches are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind dp.9: graupel blanketed with snow
10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen. 10 to 20 cm of snow, and up to 25 cm in some localities, will fall. Wind slabs are lying on soft layers at elevated altitudes. The old snowpack is well consolidated and its surface consists of loosely bonded snow lying on a resilient melt-freeze crust.
Tendency
In the north up to 15 cm of snow will fall on Wednesday. The weather conditions will give rise to increasing settling of the snowpack.
