Danger level

The avalanche danger is low. There is usually not enough snow for snow sports and avalanches can hardly be triggered.
There is no closed snow cover, snowpack and the terrain is mostly bare.
The avalanche danger remains low.

Snowpack is mostly stable. In arid areas above the forest line, weak layers may be present in the snowpack. In a few places in the high alpine regions, a small, clustered Avalanche can be triggered under higher loads.
dp.4: cold following warm / warm following cold
There is little snow, with a crust on top. There is some new snow on the old snow base at altitudes of 2000 m. Peaks and ridges may be blown. On the Sunny slope sides, there are already significant areas of land outside the High alpine regions. In the high alpine regions, weak layers may be present in the old snow cover.
Snow conditions are not expected to change significantly in the coming days. The Crust will strengthen overnight and soften during the day on the Sunny slope. Sunday will be fairly clear in the mountains, remaining relatively warm for this time of year. Monday will see some more clouds, with light southerly winds. Temperatures will be around 0 °C at 1500 m and -3 °C at 2500 m.

The avalanche danger is low. Small avalanches in particular can still be triggered by individuals in a few places in the shady slope high alpine regions above 2600 metres. On the one hand in the fresh wind slab snow of the last few days, on the other hand very occasionally in weak layers in the persistent weak layer. In addition to the risk of burial, the risk of falling and injury should be taken into account.
On the sunny slopes, the snow cover, snowpack is soaked up to high altitudes during the daytime changes. On the shady slope, it often remains hard-frozen on the surface, below which there is partly unbound edged snow at altitude, which can serve as a weak layer in exceptional cases. This is the case, for example, over the hard old snow from early winter. The snow depth is well below average at all altitudes.
The avalanche danger remains low.

In very isolated cases avalanches can be triggered from persistent weak layers on very steep shady slopes. These releases are mostly small-sized. The risks of falling and sustaining injuries outweigh those of being buried in snow masses. From place to place, freshly generated snowdrifts require attentiveness. Isolated, generally small-sized glide-snow avalanches are still possible on steep, smooth slopes which have not yet discharged.
The shallow snowpack is well consolidated for the most part and low in tensions. On shady slopes in high alpine regions, isolated weak layers inside the snowpack still occur. South-facing slopes are already bare of snow up to high altitudes. Since there is little snow to be transported, the strong-velocity southerly winds of recent days generated only small-sized snowdrift accumulations. There is currently little data from outlying terrain available to the Avalanche Warning Services.
Avalanche danger not expected to change significantly

The avalanche danger is low. Only very rarely can fresh drift snow packs be triggered by individuals in shady slopes, avalanches remain small. In areas adjacent to the ridgeline, crests or summits, there are isolated trigger points for predominantly small avalanches that are difficult to disturb, even in persistent weak layers.
The snow depth is well below average for the time of year, low to medium elevations and the sunny slopes are widely covered in snow. The snow cover, snowpack is soaked up to high altitudes on the sunny slopes during the daytime changes, in the shade it often remains frozen hard. At high altitudes on the shady slopes, weak layers of faceted crystals still remain in the snow cover, mostly in the vicinity of crusts.
The avalanche danger remains low.

The avalanche risk is low. Persistent weak layers can be problematic. Isolated avalanche prone locations can be found on extremely steep slopes in northern aspects above 2200 metres. Small slab avalanches can be triggered there with a large additional load.
The snow surface has crusted can form in many places. It softens again quickly on sunny slopes and usually remains hard and icy on shady slopes. At higher altitudes, weak layers can occasionally be found in the snow cover, snowpack on shady slopes. Otherwise, the snow cover, snowpack is compact and stable. There is little snow, on the south side the ground is covered up to high altitudes.
The avalanche danger does not change.
