Fresh wind slabs require caution. Avalanches can be released in the weakly bonded old snow. These avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on steep west, north and east facing slopes above the tree line, caution is to be exercised in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow, as well as at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found also in areas close to the tree line. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack can indicate the danger. Avalanches can reach medium size. The fresh and older wind slabs can be released by a single winter sport participant in particular on west to north to east facing aspects. Avalanches can reach medium size in particular on shady slopes. At high altitude and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. As a consequence of a strong to storm force wind from northerly directions, avalanche prone wind slabs will form in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep west, north and east facing slopes. Faceted weak layers exist deep in the old snowpack especially on shady slopes. The new snow of the last few days is lying on a crust at intermediate altitudes. Wind slabs and weakly bonded old snow are to be critically assessed. Until Monday the weather will be cold. These weather conditions will prevent a rapid stabilisation of the snow drift accumulations. steady 2025-01-12T16:00:00Z 2025-01-13T16:00:00Z 2025-01-12 DP7 DP6 2025-01-11T16:00:00Z 2025-01-11T16:00:00Z 2025-01-12T16:00:00Z false Western Lechtal Alps Central Lechtal Alps Eastern Lechtal Alps Ammergau Alps Western Karwendel Mountains Western Verwall Mountains Eastern Verwall Mountains Allgäu Alps Mieming Mountains low 2200 all_day moderate 2200 all_day wind_slab 2200 NE NW E N all_day poor some 2 slab The fresh and older wind slabs of the last few days represent the main danger.

Caution is to be exercised on near-ridge slopes. The prevalence of the avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. The somewhat older wind slabs are covered with new snow in some cases and therefore difficult to recognise. In little used backcountry terrain the avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. Transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack are especially unfavourable. Small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized gliding avalanches are possible. As a consequence of the occasionally strong northerly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form.

The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack can indicate the danger. Mostly avalanches are rather small. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. In the regions neighbouring those that are subject to danger level 3 (considerable) the avalanche danger is a little higher. As a consequence of a strong to storm force wind, sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The wind slabs will be deposited on soft layers in particular on steep northwest, north and east facing slopes. Faceted weak layers exist deep in the old snowpack especially on shady slopes.
