On Monday, visibility will be mostly good in the morning and the sun will shine frequently. In the afternoon, cumulus clouds may restrict visibility and the light will become more diffuse. Snow showers are then also to be expected in places. Weak winds from north to west. At 2000 m -5 to 0 degrees, at 3000 m around -11 degrees. Avalanche prone locations in persistent weak layers are rare but have serious consequences, snowdrift accumulations are still prone to triggering at altitude The avalanche risk is moderate above 2000 metres and low below that. Above 2200 m, avalanches can still be triggered by individuals in wind slabs, in particular in aspects from north-west to north to north-east. Danger areas are easily recognisable, they are located behind terrain edges and in steep gullies and bowls. Avalanches can reach medium size and occasionally become large if they tear through the persistent weak layer. Above 2000 m, in the aspects from west to north to east, medium and occasionally large, dry slab avalanches can still be triggered in the persistent weak layer in a few places with little additional load. Although such avalanche prone locations are rare, they are not recognisable in the terrain. Be especially careful at the transitions from little to more snow. During the daytime changes, small wet loose snow slides can be triggered from extremely steep, sunny terrain. Fresh and older wind slab snow is still prone to triggering in places (on shady slopes, in high alpine locations also on sunny slopes). Faceted crystals on a crust serve as a weak layer near the surface below the wind slab. Faceted crystals on crusts can also be found deeper in the snowpack; near the ground, the snowpack consists of angular, cup-shaped crystals. The connection at the transition to the deep snowpack near the ground is still poor. Deep and sunny middle layers are bare. Gradual settlement of the snowdrift accumulations.

Snow showers are then also to be expected in places. Weak winds from north to west. At 2000 m -5 to 0 degrees, at 3000 m around -11 degrees. Note the persistent weak layer The avalanche risk is low. Above 2000 m, medium slab avalanches can be triggered in a few places in the aspects from west to north to east, in particular due to large additional loads. Such avalanche prone locations are rare but not recognisable in the terrain. Take particular care at the transitions from little to more snow. In summit locations, avalanches can still be triggered by individuals in wind slabs, in particular in the aspects from north-west to north to north-east. Danger areas are easily recognisable, avalanches remain small. The risk of falling generally outweighs the risk of burial. Snowdrift accumulations have mostly stabilised well up to high altitudes. Occasionally, faceted layers can be found underneath drift snow packs. Faceted crystals can also be found on crusts deeper in the snowpack, while the snowpack near the ground consists of angular, cup-shaped crystals. The connection at the transition to the deep snowpack near the ground is still poor. Deep and sunny middle layers are bare. No significant change.

On Monday, visibility will be mostly good in the morning and the sun will shine frequently. In the afternoon, cumulus clouds may restrict visibility and the light will become more diffuse. Snow showers are then also to be expected in places. Weak winds from north to west. At 2000 m -5 to 0 degrees, at 3000 m around -11 degrees. Mostly favourable conditions with little snow The avalanche risk is low. In the entrance areas of steep gullies on shady slopes, snow slabs can occasionally be triggered in persistent weak layers. The risk of being swept away and falling on icy surfaces that may be thinly covered with snow and therefore difficult to recognise generally outweighs the risk of burial. New snow and wind slab have stabilised well. In the higher on shady slopes, there are still weak layers of large faceted crystals in the lower part of the snowpack, especially close to the ground. Low and sunny mid-altitude areas are bare. No significant change in avalanche danger. Pay attention to weak persistent layers and wind slabs at altitude
