Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution.
Wind slabs can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines above approximately 1900 m. Avalanches can in some cases reach medium size. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls.
Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released in isolated cases by individual winter sport participants. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep, little used shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. In isolated cases avalanches can also release deeper layers of the snowpack and reach medium size.
Snowpack
dp.6: cold, loose snow and wind
As a consequence of a storm force wind from northerly directions, mostly small wind slabs formed since Saturday especially adjacent to ridgelines. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers. As a consequence of the sometimes storm force wind the wind slabs will increase in size additionally.
Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the old snowpack especially on little used west, north and east facing slopes. This applies on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m.
The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations at intermediate altitudes. Below the tree line a little snow is lying.
Tendency
The wind will be strong to storm force over a wide area. The weather will be mostly sunny.
