Avalanche Problem
Wet snow
1800m
Wet and gliding snow require caution.
As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation more gliding avalanches and moist snow slides are to be expected as the day progresses, even medium-sized ones. These can be released by people or triggered naturally.
In addition especially in the vicinity of peaks, individual small dry slab avalanches are possible. These can in isolated cases be released by people.

Snowpack
>
A great many small and medium-sized gliding avalanches and moist snow slides have been released in the last few days. Some snow fell today in some localities. The sometimes moderate wind has transported only a little snow.
In particular sunny slopes: Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to increasing moistening of the snowpack in particular on steep slopes. Shady slopes: The old snowpack remains moist. As a consequence of falling temperatures low relative humidity the snowpack will consolidate.
Above approximately 2000 m there are 40 to 60 cm of snow, and even more in some localities. At low altitude from a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying.

Tendency
Wednesday: Further increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as the moisture increases.
