Fresh wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence. Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases.
The fresh wind slabs can in some cases be released, even by a single winter sport participant. In some cases avalanches are medium-sized. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep shady slopes above the tree line. In the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and larger.
Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases in shady places that are protected from the wind. The avalanche prone locations are to be found on very steep west, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. Caution is to be exercised in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack, when entering gullies and bowls for example. Avalanches can reach medium size in isolated cases.
On steep grassy slopes mostly small gliding avalanches are possible.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
dp.1: deep persistent weak layer
Over a wide area 10 to 25 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall above approximately 1500 m. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes.
Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on west, north and east facing slopes.
The snowpack will be moist at low and intermediate altitudes.
Tendency
Thursday: The avalanche danger will persist.
