High Alpine regions: Fresh wind slabs require caution. As a consequence of the rain there will be a gradual increase in the danger of wet and gliding avalanches, in the regions exposed to a lot of new snow in particular. Wet avalanches can be triggered in deep layers and reach quite a large size. This applies in particular on steep shady slopes. Additionally in some places wet avalanches can also be triggered in near-surface layers. This applies in all aspects below approximately 2000 m. Exposed parts of transportation routes can be endangered occasionally. <br/> <br/> As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes strong southwesterly wind, sometimes easily released wind slabs formed in high Alpine regions. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes. Caution is to be exercised adjacent to ridgelines, and in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. <br/> Backcountry touring calls for meticulous route selection. Up to high altitudes rain will fall until the early morning in some regions. The rain will give rise to a loss of strength within the snowpack. <br/> The old snowpack is wet, in particular below approximately 2600 m. <br/> The moist fresh snow and the wind slabs formed by the moderate to strong southwesterly wind are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on very steep shady slopes. This applies especially above approximately 2600 m, and in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow. <br/> At low and intermediate altitudes only a little snow is lying, especially on sunny slopes. At high altitudes and in high Alpine regions there is still a very large amount of snow. Gradual increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation. Fresh wind slabs at high altitude. 2021-05-01T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2021-05-01T22:00:00Z 2021-05-02T22:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 3 DP3 DP6 wet snow drifting snow old snow steady 2021-05-02T22:00:00Z 2021-05-03T22:00:00Z The danger of wet and gliding avalanches will persist.

The weather conditions will give rise to increasing and thorough wetting of the snowpack. As the day progresses small and medium-sized wet avalanches are possible. Wet avalanches can in some places be released in near-surface layers by a single winter sport participant, also on shady slopes. <br/> Up to high altitudes rain will fall until the early morning in some regions. The surface of the snowpack will already be soft in the early morning. At low and intermediate altitudes a little snow is lying. The danger of wet avalanches will persist.
