Fresh wind slabs at elevated altitudes. More medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large gliding avalanches are possible. This applies on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. <br/> <br/> The fresh wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in isolated cases in particular on very steep north and east facing slopes above approximately 2200 m. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas. Avalanches can reach medium size in isolated cases. At elevated altitudes and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the avalanche prone locations are a little more prevalent. <br/> <br/> In addition individual mostly small loose snow avalanches are possible. In the event of prolonged bright spells this applies on extremely steep slopes. 15 to 25 cm of snow will fall on Wednesday. The wind will be moderate. <br/> As a consequence of new snow and wind, mostly small wind slabs will form in particular adjacent to ridgelines. They will be deposited on soft layers on north and east facing slopes. <br/> <br/> The snowpack is wet all the way through and its surface consists of loosely bonded snow lying on a melt-freeze crust that is barely capable of bearing a load. This applies on sunny slopes in all altitude zones, as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2600 m. Wind slabs and gliding snow require caution. 2024-04-16T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2024-04-16T22:00:00Z 2024-04-17T22:00:00Z Avalanche.report 1 2 DP2 gliding snow steady 2024-04-17T22:00:00Z 2024-04-18T22:00:00Z Gliding snow requires caution. More medium-sized and, in isolated cases, large gliding avalanches are possible. This applies in particular on steep grassy slopes below approximately 2600 m. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. <br/> <br/> In steep terrain there is a danger of falling on the hard crust. Some snow will fall in some localities. This applies in particular in the north and in the east. The wind will be moderate over a wide area. <br/> <br/> The snowpack is wet all the way through and its surface has a crust. This applies on sunny slopes in all altitude zones, as well as on shady slopes below approximately 2600 m. <br/> In particular below the tree line only a little snow is now lying. Gliding snow requires caution. The avalanche danger will persist. 2024-04-16T15:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2024-04-16T22:00:00Z 2024-04-17T22:00:00Z Avalanche.report 1 DP4 DP2 steady 2024-04-17T22:00:00Z 2024-04-18T22:00:00Z Even in relatively flat terrain there is a danger of falling on the icy crust. On steep grassy slopes mostly small gliding avalanches are possible. The activity of wet avalanches will decrease. The snowpack is wet and its surface has a strong melt-freeze crust. Below approximately 1800 m from a snow sport perspective, in most cases insufficient snow is lying. Thursday: The avalanche danger will persist.
