If the weather is sunny, the risk of avalanches on steeper slopes will increase during the day.
Warm and sunny weather may lead to more frequent spontaneous small avalanches of wet snow on steep slopes during the day in the coming days. In arid areas above the tree line, weak layers are present in the snow cover. In a few places, a small to medium sized snow avalanche can be triggered under higher loads.

In recent days, the crust has been building up on the slopes in sunny weather. In the shadier and sheltered areas, the snow cover remains more loose and dry. Mostly, however, it is increasingly transformed by wind and sun. In arid areas, weak layers may be present in the snow cover. During the day tomorrow, the snow cover will become more pronounced and less stable on sloping terrain.
Tendency
Especially on steep slopes, the risk of avalanches will increase slightly during the day and decrease rapidly in the evening. Snow will remain mostly dry and poorly transformed in the arid areas.
