The fresh wind slabs must be evaluated with care and prudence in particular on northwest to north to south facing aspects, in particular adjacent to ridgelines. Skiers can release avalanches in some places. Avalanches are rather small. As a consequence of solar radiation individual small moist loose snow slides are possible. This applies especially on extremely steep sunny slopes. 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. In addition a latent danger of gliding avalanches exists, in particular in case of releases originating from south facing starting zones below approximately 2600 m that have retained the snow thus far. The fresh wind slabs remain in some cases prone to triggering. This applies at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. The old snowpack will be moist on southeast, south and southwest facing slopes, in particular on steep sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m. The old snowpack will be generally well bonded. Slight warming above approximately 2000 m. The wind will be moderate. The avalanche danger will persist. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files_local/2019-12-08/2019-12-07_16-00-00/183617ad-e976-40f4-94e4-89626c7f634e.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2019-12-08?region=183617ad-e976-40f4-94e4-89626c7f634e 2019-12-07T16:00:00Z 2019-12-07T23:00:00Z 2019-12-08T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Prealps Cembra Valley Bondone and Stivo Vallarsa Western Nonsberg Alps Folgaria - Laverone Ledro Valley Marzola - Valsugana Pine' - Mocheni Valley low low 2 3 1 low 1 1 dp2 gliding_snow S SW W SE 1800 2200 steady 2019-12-08T23:00:00Z 2019-12-09T23:00:00Z In these regions the snowpack is well bonded. Ground avalanches are still possible in the second half of the day, especially on steep grassy slopes. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual gliding avalanches are possible, but they will be mostly small. The small wind slabs can be released, especially by large additional loads, in all aspects at elevated altitudes. Such avalanche prone locations are rare and are easy to recognise. Even in moderately steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard snow surface, after a clear night in particular. The snowpack will be in most cases stable. Over a wide area relatively hard layers of snow are lying on a moist old snowpack. At low and intermediate altitudes hardly any snow is lying. Low, level 1.

Fresh wind slabs require caution. The fresh wind slabs are in some cases prone to triggering in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2400 m, in particular adjacent to ridgelines. They are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Skiers can release avalanches in some places. These are rather small. 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 will be generally well bonded. As a consequence of a strong to storm force westerly wind, wind slabs formed in the last few days in particular adjacent to ridgelines. These are small but prone to triggering.

Ground avalanches are still possible in particular in the second half of the day in isolated cases. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation individual gliding avalanches are possible, but they can reach medium size, especially at the base of rock walls and on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2400 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided as far as possible. The mostly small wind slabs have bonded well with the old snowpack in all aspects. They are easy to recognise and can be released by large loads in particular, especially adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas,, in isolated cases also in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The snowpack will be generally stable. The wind has transported only a little snow. The wind slabs are to be found in particular in the vicinity of peaks. These have bonded quite well with the old snowpack in all aspects. Over a wide area relatively hard layers of snow are lying on a moist old snowpack, in particular below the tree line as well as on sunny slopes at intermediate and high altitudes. Low, level 1.
