Avalanche danger is low. Wet snow can be problematic. Small loose-snow avalanches can triggered during the daytime hours, mostly on extremely steep slopes at intermediate altitudes. On very steep slopes with deep enough snow and a smooth ground surface, glide-snow avalanches possible.

Snowpack

In early morning the snowpack is compact, often frozen hard, and largely stable. Due to daytime warming it softens up rapidly during the day. The snowpack is then moist on the surface, forfeiting firmness, in some places it is utterly wet. On shady slopes the snow is also increasingly moist on the surface. Only at high altitudes is the loose snow still dry. Snowpack analysis and snow profiles show good snowpack stability by and large. On south-facing slopes the ground is becoming bare of snow.

Tendency

Avalanche danger levels not expected to change significantly in the next few days
