Strong northerly winds will often disperse some clouds. At 2000m: -7 degrees. Unfavorable avalanche conditions in places Avalanches can be triggered in the old snow even by one sole skier. In addition, avalanches can be triggered even by minimum additional loading in the near-surface layers of the snowpack, esp above 2000m. Avalanches can on shady slopes sweep along the moist layers of the old snowpack and grow to large size. Caution urged at the foot of rock walls and behind protruberances in the terrain, and in gullies and bowls. Due to moistening, increasingly frequent moist loose-snow avalanches can be expected, also medium-sized ones, esp. after a night of cloudy skies on extremely steep slopes. Caution also urged towards moist slides and avalanches, also medium sized releases on extremely steep slopes after a night of cloudy skies. The runout zones should be circumvented. On very steep grass-covered slopes glide-snow avalanches are possible, also medium sized releases. Since Friday, 50-90cm of fresh snow has been registered above 1600m, locally more. High air moisture has moistened the snowpack esp. above 2400m. Heavily clouded skies mean the snowpack cannot firm up during the nocturnal hours. More deeply embedded inside the snowpack on shady slopes are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. above 2000m. Fresh snowdrift accumulations have been deposited atop soft layers esp. above 2400m. Weather conditions will lead to a gradual stabilization of the snowpack 2025-03-16T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2025-03-16T16:00:00Z 2025-03-17T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2 DP1 DP10 wet snow old snow decreasing 2025-03-17T16:00:00Z 2025-03-18T16:00:00Z On Monday the air curent will shift, it will become windier and cooler. Strong northerly winds will often disperse some clouds. At 2000m: -7 degrees. Caution: snowdrift accumulations With lower temperatures, isolated small-to-medium moist slides and avalanches are possible at all altitudes, esp. on extremely steep slopes following a night of cloud skies. Avaalanches can be triggered in the old snow even by one sole skier, esp. on shady slopes above 2000m. Avalanches can fracture down to the moist snowpack layers, which pushes the runout zones of avalanches further downhill. Avalanches can reach medium size. Since Friday, 20-30cm of fresh snow has been registered above 1800m, locally more. High air moisture has moistened the snowpack esp. above 2400m. Heavily clouded skies mean the snowpack cannot firm up during the nocturnal hours. More deeply embedded inside the snowpack on shady slopes are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. above 2000m. Fresh snowdrift accumulations have been deposited atop soft layers esp. above 2000m.

Strong northerly winds will often disperse some clouds. At 2000m: -7 degrees; at 3000m: -14 degrees. Caution: weak layers in the old snow Avalanches can be triggered in the weak old snow even by one sole skier, esp. on shady slopes above 2000m. They can fracture down to the moist layers of the old snowpack, which pushes the runout zones further downhill. Most releases are medium-sized. Whumpf noises and glide cracks when you tread on the snowpack are indicators of imminent danger. Fresh snowdrifts can be triggered by one sole skier esp. on shady slopes above 2400m. Caution urged at the foot of rock walls, behind protruberances, and in gullies and bowls. Activity of small-to-medium loose-snow avalanches will increase significantly. Runout zones should be circumvented. On very steep grass-covered slopes, glide-snow avalanches are possible, also medium sized releases. Since Friday, 25-50cm of fresh snow has been registered above 2000m, locally more. High air moisture has moistened the snowpack esp. above 2400m. Heavily clouded skies mean the snowpack cannot firm up during the nocturnal hours. More deeply embedded inside the snowpack on shady slopes are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. above 2000m. The snowpack is moist up to intermediate altitudes. Nocturnal outgoing longwave radiation is nearly absent.

Since Friday, 50-100cm of fresh snow has been registered above 1600m, locally more. High air moisture has moistened the snowpack esp. above 2400m. Heavily clouded skies mean the snowpack cannot firm up during the nocturnal hours. More deeply embedded inside the snowpack on shady slopes are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. above 1900m. Due to lower temperatures and low air moisture the snowpack is consolidating
