Avalanche Problem
Wind-drifted snow
2300m
Wind slabs near the border with Ribagorça and Pallars.
As a consequence of a moderate to strong wind from southeasterly directions, mostly small wind slabs formed adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. They can be released easily. Above approximately 2300 m and in the valleys bordering the Ribagorçana basin and the Pallaresa basin the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent and the danger is greater.
As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small moist snow slides are possible in all altitude zones. Individual gliding avalanches can also occur.

Snowpack
>
The new snow of the last few days is lying on a crust in all aspects. This snow is loosely bonded in particular on wind-protected shady slopes and at high altitude.
Low and intermediate altitudes: The old snowpack will be generally moist. The surface of the snowpack will freeze very little and will already soften in the late morning.
Above approximately 2000 m there are 100 to 200 cm of snow. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind.

Tendency
The avalanche danger will persist.
