If the weather is sunny, the risk of avalanches on steeper slopes will increase during the day.
Warm and sunny weather will allow small avalanches of wet snow to break spontaneously on steep slopes during the day. The likelihood of triggering will decrease rapidly in the evening.
In arid areas above the tree line, weak layers are present in the snow cover. In a few places, a small to medium sized sheet avalanche may be triggered under higher loads.
Snowpack
dp.4: cold following warm / warm following cold
In sunny weather, the crust strengthens at low altitudes and softens during the day. In 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, the snow will remain mostly dry, where weak layers may be present in the snow cover.
Tendency
Friday will see a slight warming at high altitudes, continuing dry weather with some clouds. During the day, the snow cover will become more pronounced and less stable at low elevations.
