As a consequence of fresh snow and a sometimes strong wind from northwesterly directions, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The fresh wind slabs can in some places be released by a single winter sport participant and reach medium size. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep northwest, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. The prevalence of avalanche prone locations and likelihood of triggering will increase with altitude. In high Alpine regions the avalanche prone locations are to be found in all aspects. <br/> As the moisture increases individual mostly small moist loose snow avalanches are to be expected. This applies on extremely steep sunny slopes, in the event of solar radiation especially. 10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. The wind will be strong in some cases. The weather will be cold. Over a wide area fresh snow is lying on a hard crust. This applies on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m as well as in all aspects at low and intermediate altitudes. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling here. Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. They are in some cases prone to triggering. The old snowpack will be generally stable. Fresh wind slabs require caution. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 2 1 DP6 drifting snow Fresh wind slabs require caution. Fresh wind slabs can be released in isolated cases above approximately 2000 m, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. The avalanche prone locations are easy to recognise. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface. As a consequence of solar radiation individual dry and moist avalanches are possible as the day progresses, but they will be mostly small. 5 to 10 cm of snow. will fall. The violent wind will transport the fresh and old snow. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions the prevalence and size of the avalanche prone locations will increase. Fresh wind slabs are clearly recognisable. Over a wide area wind slabs are lying on a hard crust. The old snowpack will be generally stable. The backcountry touring conditions are quite favourable. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 2 1 DP6 drifting snow Fresh wind slabs require caution.

The prevalence of avalanche prone locations and likelihood of triggering will increase with altitude. <br/> As the moisture increases individual small moist loose snow avalanches are to be expected. This applies on extremely steep sunny slopes, in the event of solar radiation especially. 5 to 15 cm of snow. will fall. The wind will be strong in some cases. The weather will be cold. Over a wide area fresh snow is lying on a hard crust. This applies on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m as well as in all aspects at low and intermediate altitudes. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling here. Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. They are in some cases prone to triggering. The old snowpack will be generally stable. The backcountry and freeriding conditions are mostly favourable. Fresh wind slabs require caution. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 1 DP10 drifting snow old snow The northerly wind will transport only a little snow. The conditions are spring-like. Fresh wind slabs can be released in isolated cases in all aspects above approximately 2200 m, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. The avalanche prone locations are easy to recognise. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface. As a consequence of solar radiation a low danger of wet snow slides will be encountered in some regions. The avalanche prone locations are to be found at low altitude and on very steep sunny slopes below approximately 2400 m. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will hardly soften at all. This applies on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m. Fresh wind slabs are lying on a crust in particular on steep sunny slopes. The old snowpack will be in most cases stable. The avalanche conditions are favourable. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 1 DP6 drifting snow Fresh wind slabs require caution.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on very steep northwest, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. The prevalence of avalanche prone locations and likelihood of triggering will increase with altitude. In the north avalanche prone locations are more widespread and the danger is slightly greater. The wind will be strong in some cases. The weather will be cold. Some snow will fall in the north. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust. This applies on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2800 m as well as in all aspects at low and intermediate altitudes. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling here. On steep sunny slopes the snowpack will soften slowly. Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. They are in some cases prone to triggering. The old snowpack will be stable over a wide area. The backcountry and freeriding conditions are generally favourable. Fresh wind slabs require caution. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 1 drifting snow old snow The violent wind will transport only a little snow. Currently there are favourable conditions over a wide area. As a consequence of a strengthening wind from northwesterly directions, mostly shallow wind slabs will form as the day progresses in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The fresh wind slabs can in isolated cases be released by a single winter sport participant. Restraint should be exercised because avalanches can sweep people along and give rise to falls. Avalanche prone weak layers exist deep in the old snowpack in particular on shady slopes. Avalanches can be released in the weakly bonded old snow, mostly by large additional loads in isolated cases. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep northwest, north and northeast facing slopes above approximately 2000 m. At elevated altitudes avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust. <br/> The wind will be moderate to strong. The weather will be cold. The mostly shallow wind slabs are to be evaluated with care and prudence in particular in extremely steep terrain. <br/> The backcountry and freeriding conditions are generally favourable. Fresh wind slabs require caution. 2019-03-25T16:00:00Z 2019-03-25T23:00:00Z 2019-03-26T23:00:00Z 1 old snow In the Etschtal and in neighbouring regions hardly any snow is lying on northwest and northeast facing slopes. From a snow sport perspective, insufficient snow is lying. <br/> The avalanche conditions are spring-like. In the late morning a low avalanche danger will be encountered over a wide area. In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface. <br/> Midday and afternoon: As a consequence of warming and solar radiation a low danger of moist and wet snow slides will be encountered in some regions. The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will soften during the day. The avalanche conditions are favourable.
