Moist and wet avalanches below the tree line. As a consequence of fresh snow and wind, extensive wind slabs formed especially in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation. They will become increasingly prone to triggering in all aspects above the tree line. The avalanche prone locations are to be found especially adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. These places are prevalent and are difficult to recognise. The prevalence of avalanche prone locations and likelihood of triggering will increase with altitude. <br/> <br/> As a consequence of the precipitation more small to medium-sized moist and wet avalanches are to be expected below approximately 2000 m. This applies on steep slopes in all aspects. In addition a latent danger of gliding avalanches exists. In particular from the Stubai Alps via the Zillertal Alps to the Lienzer Dolomites over a wide area 20 to 30 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, fell above approximately 1600 m. The wind was moderate to strong at times. Fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers in all aspects above the tree line. Over a wide area 10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall today above approximately 1000 m. The old snowpack will be wet all the way through at low and intermediate altitudes. Fresh wind slabs in the high Alpine regions. Moist and wet avalanches below the tree line. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-04-29/2019-04-28_15-00-00/d263be7d-5698-490b-8b3b-ba91c0c105f4.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-04-29?region=d263be7d-5698-490b-8b3b-ba91c0c105f4 2019-04-28T15:00:00Z 2019-04-28T22:00:00Z 2019-04-29T22:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Adamello - Presanella Northern Brenta - Peller Southern Brenta Sole, Pejo and Rabbi considerable considerable 3 3 2 considerable 2 2 wind_drifted_snow E W N NE NW SE 2400 wet_snow E SW W N S NE NW SE 2400 decreasing 2019-04-29T22:00:00Z 2019-04-30T22:00:00Z Ski touring and snowshoe hiking call for meticulous route selection. As a consequence of fresh snow and a strong southerly wind, extensive wind slabs formed in the last few days. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on west to north to southeast facing wind-loaded slopes above approximately 2400 m. Especially slopes adjacent to ridgelines are especially precarious. Single skiers can release avalanches in some places, including dangerously large ones. Backcountry touring calls for a certain restraint. On wind-loaded slopes and from starting zones at higher altitudes dry and moist avalanches are possible, even large ones in isolated cases. As the day progresses as a consequence of solar radiation there will be only a slight increase in the danger of moist and wet avalanches. In particular from the Ortler Range via the Ulten Valley to the Passeier Tal 20 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen in the last few days above approximately 2400 m. As a consequence of a strong to storm force wind from southerly directions, deep wind slabs formed. The wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes. Large-grained weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack especially here. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced over a wide area. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze. In some cases fresh snow and wind slabs are lying on an old snowpack that is wet all the way through. This applies in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 3000 m as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2400 m. Gradual decrease in danger of moist and wet avalanches as the temperature drops. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2019-04-29/2019-04-28_15-00-00/edcd7a0f-073c-4a7b-8247-cdfe304c9a18.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-04-29?region=edcd7a0f-073c-4a7b-8247-cdfe304c9a18 2019-04-28T15:00:00Z 2019-04-28T22:00:00Z 2019-04-29T22:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Primiero - Pale di S.

As a consequence of warming during the day, the likelihood of moist and wet avalanches being released will increase in particular below approximately 2400 m. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. The old snowpack remains moist below approximately 2400 m. At low altitude no snow is lying.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on wind-loaded slopes of all aspects above approximately 2200 m. They are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility.
