Danger level

Avalanche Problem
Wet snow

 

Moist snow slides during the day are still possible.
As a consequence of rain up to high altitudes the snow drift accumulations stabilised. As a consequence of falling temperatures and low relative humidity a crust formed on the surface during the night. Very steep sunny slopes: As the day progresses individual small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist snow slides and avalanches are possible.
Snowpack
>
Up to high altitudes rain fell on Monday over a wide area. Sunny slopes: The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. Shady slopes: In many places there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface.
Above approximately 2000 m there are 100 to 200 cm of snow, and even more in some localities. Snow depths vary greatly at elevated altitudes, depending on the infuence of the wind.
Tendency
Friday: Gradual decrease in danger of moist avalanches as the temperature drops.
