Weak layers in persistent weak layer!

The avalanche danger remains moderate above an altitude of around 1600 metres. There are still avalanche prone locations on shady slopes in steep terrain. Here and most likely at the transition from little to more snow, slab avalanches can be triggered by large, sometimes small additional loads. Naturally triggered avalanches are rarely possible from very steep terrain that has not been unloaded, or even more so in the afternoon due to increasing sunlight. Medium-sized avalanches are generally possible. If deeper layers are also affected, they can occasionally become large.

Snowpack

The snowpack has continued to settle somewhat, but is moist to partly wet up to high altitudes, especially on the sunny slopes. The snow surface may firm up a little overnight and varies greatly depending on altitude, aspect and time of day. At high altitudes and on shady slopes, the snow base, fundament is still weakened by the kinetic metamorphism, in some places there are still weak layers in older snow packs. In the middle sunny slopes, the snow depths have already decreased significantly, while at low altitude there is no more snow.

Tendency

It will be much milder, very sunny. Note the daytime changes.
