Low danger of Avalanches

The old snow cover is stable and well connected. Snow fell on Wednesday night and Wednesday, accompanied by light winds. The snowfall level was around 2400 m in the first part of the night, and dropped to around 1800 m during the day on Wednesday. During the day, some small avalanches or wet snow avalanches are possible on sunny slopes.

Snowpack

dp.10: springtime scenario

The old snow cover is well transformed, cohesive and stable. Snow is relatively scarce for this time of year. In the high alpine regions, 10-15 cm of New fallen snow has fallen above altitudes of around 2100 m. Most of the snowfall has been quite wet and has somewhat adhered to the old base. Lower down it was partly raining partly snowing, at altitudes below about 1800 m it was mostly raining. The snowpack will be frosty in the high alpine regions in the morning, but will warm and melt during the day.

Tendency

The danger of avalanches in high alpine regions will remain similar. Conditions will be spring-like, with snow freezing in the morning and then thawing and melting overnight. It will gradually warm up.
