The fresh snow as well as the wind slabs formed during the snowfall must be evaluated with care and prudence. As a consequence of warming the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase.

The new snow and wind slabs of the last few days remain for the foreseeable future prone to triggering. The prevalence of the avalanche prone locations will increase as the day progresses. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. In all aspects large and, in isolated cases, very large avalanches are possible.
Avalanches can be released by a single winter sport participant.

Snowpack

The wind slabs have formed in particular adjacent to ridgelines and at elevated altitudes. The new snow and wind slabs of the last few days are poorly bonded with the old snowpack. The weather conditions gave rise to thorough wetting of the snowpack. Over a wide area new snow and wind slabs are lying on a wet old snowpack.

Tendency

Over a wide area continuous warming.
As a consequence of warming the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent.
