Weak layers in the old snowpack can be released even by individual winter sport participants. This applies in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2000 m, as well as on very steep east and west facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. Caution is to be exercised at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. As the day progresses the likelihood of avalanches being released will increase a little. <br/> Fresh wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on steep northwest, north and east facing slopes above approximately 2400 m, especially adjacent to ridgelines. <br/> As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small to medium-sized loose snow avalanches are to be expected. On steep grassy slopes more frequent small gliding avalanches are to be expected. Faceted weak layers exist in the old snowpack, especially on shady slopes above approximately 2000 m, as well as on west and east facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. <br/> Over a wide area 25 to 40 cm of snow has fallen since Tuesday above approximately 1800 m. As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes strong wind, extensive wind slabs formed. These are lying on soft layers on steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. <br/> The solar radiation will give rise to increasing moistening of the snowpack especially at low and intermediate altitudes. The meteorological conditions will bring about a slight weakening of the snowpack as the day progresses. Thursday: Gradual increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of warming. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://static.avalanche.report/bulletins/2023-03-15/2023-03-14_16-00-00/AT-07_aa209e88-324c-4c24-9368-9c4875861e9e.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2023-03-15?region=aa209e88-324c-4c24-9368-9c4875861e9e 2023-03-14T16:00:00Z 2023-03-14T23:00:00Z 2023-03-15T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report moderate 2200 low 2200 dp6 dp1 wind_slab N NW NE E 2200 1 poor some persistent_weak_layers N NW NE W E 2200 2 poor few steady 2023-03-15T23:00:00Z 2023-03-16T23:00:00Z Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow require caution. Fresh wind slabs can be released even by a single winter sport participant. They are to be avoided in particular in steep terrain. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2200 m and adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The avalanche prone locations are sometimes covered with new snow and are difficult to recognise. At elevated altitudes the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. Avalanches can reach medium size. <br/> Avalanches can additionally in isolated cases be released in the old snowpack by a single winter sport participant, especially on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m, as well as on very steep east and west facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. Caution is to be exercised at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. <br/> Meticulous route selection is recommended. Over a wide area 10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, has fallen since Tuesday. As a consequence of new snow and a strong wind, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs formed. These are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes at high altitudes and in high Alpine regions. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded still only poorly with each other and the old snowpack. On Wednesday the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. <br/> Faceted weak layers exist in the old snowpack, especially on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m, as well as on east and west facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. <br/> The solar radiation will give rise as the day progresses to slight moistening of the snowpack in particular on sunny slopes. <br/> The weather conditions facilitated a gradual stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation moist snow slides and avalanches are possible. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://static.avalanche.report/bulletins/2023-03-15/2023-03-14_16-00-00/AT-07_0777a866-39cd-4075-a37a-f444d60e33de.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2023-03-15?region=0777a866-39cd-4075-a37a-f444d60e33de 2023-03-14T16:00:00Z 2023-03-14T23:00:00Z 2023-03-15T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report moderate 2400 low 2400 dp6 wind_slab N NW NE E 2400 1 poor some steady 2023-03-15T23:00:00Z 2023-03-16T23:00:00Z Fresh wind slabs require caution.

Mostly the avalanches are small. <br/> As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small to medium-sized loose snow avalanches are to be expected.
