High, level 4. More frequent natural avalanches are to be expected. The snow sport conditions outside marked and open pistes are dangerous. Single winter sport participants can release avalanches very easily, including large ones. This applies in particular above approximately 2000 m in all aspects. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of slab avalanches being released will increase appreciably on steep sunny slopes. <br/> As the day progresses more natural moist avalanches are to be expected. This applies in particular on very steep sunny slopes. The avalanches can be released in the various layers of fresh snow and reach large size in isolated cases. Snow sport activities outside marked and open pistes call for very extensive experience in the assessment of avalanche danger and great restraint. 30 to 50 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, fell. This applies above approximately 2000 m. At low and intermediate altitudes the snow is moist. The sometimes strong wind will transport the fresh snow. Over a wide area fresh snow and wind slabs are lying on soft layers. This applies in all aspects above approximately 2000 m. The older wind slabs have bonded quite well with the old snowpack. In very isolated cases weak layers exist in the old snowpack, in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. The avalanche danger will decrease. 2020-03-10T16:00:00Z 2020-03-10T23:00:00Z 2020-03-11T11:00:00Z 3 2 DP6 DP3 drifting snow wet snow As a consequence of warming there will be an increase in the danger.
