Isolated dry-snow avalanches also possible, esp. in the major areas of precipitation. Releases will be mostly small-sized, medium-sized in isolated cases. Size of danger zones tend to increase with ascending altitude.Shady slopes are especially unfavorable. Danger zones tend to increase in frequency with ascending altitude. Up to 10 cm of fresh snow was registered, locally more. Often storm-strength winds will transport the fresh fallen snow, in some places also the old snow. The fresh snowdrift accumulations will be poorly bonded with the old snowpack, deposited atop a weak old snowpack surface particularly above 1800m. The fresh drifts lie deposited atop an old snowpack which is expansively metamorphosed, weak and faceted. The snowpack is highly diverse even over small areas. There is too little snow on the ground for this juncture of the season.

Snowdrift accumulations which are prone to triggering will be generated particularly in gullies, bowls and behind protruberances in the landscape due to fresh snow and strong to storm-velocity winds. Snowdrifts can be triggered by one single skier and are expected to remain trigger-sensitive. Avalanches can in isolated cases trigger naturally at the foot of rock cliffs and grow to medium size. They can also trigger in the weak layers in isolated cases and grow to medium size. Particularly unfavorable are shady slopes. Size and frequency of danger zones will tend to increase with ascending altitude. Up to 10 cm of fresh snow was registered regionally, locally more. The often storm-strength winds will transport the fresh and also the old snow. The varied snowdrift accumulations are often poorly bonded with each other and with the old snowpack surface, they lie particularly on NW/N/SE facing slopes above 2400m atop a weak old snowpack. The fresh drifts also lie on top of weak layers. The snowpack is highly diverse even over small areas. There is too little snow on the ground for this juncture of the season.

Only isolated avalanche-prone locations. Avalanches are hardly possible. Isolated danger zones occur on shady slopes and in gullies and bowls. There was some regional snowfall. The storm-strength winds will transport the fresh snow, also some of the old snow. Mostly shallow snowdrift accumulations occur from place to place. These accumulations of drifts lie deposited on shady slopes above 1800m atop a rather shallow old snowpack surface. The old snowpack is expansively metamorphosed.
