Persistent weak layer and increased wet snow problem during daytime changes
The avalanche risk is predominantly 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 mostly large additional loads. In some cases, naturally triggered avalanches of up to medium size are possible from unloaded steep slopes, with the warming of the day and plenty of sunshine, especially in the afternoon.
Snowpack
The snowpack has largely settled, with only some firmness on the surface overnight, but is otherwise moist up to high altitudes and often wet on sunny slopes. The snow surface quickly loses firmness depending on altitude and aspect. At high altitudes and on shady slopes, the snow base, fundament continues to be weakened by the kinetic metamorphism. In the middle sunny slopes, the snow depths have already decreased significantly again and, like at low altitude, are often bare.
Tendency
Note the persistent weak layer problem and daytime changes in wet snow avalanches.
