Sometimes avalanche prone wind slabs will form. These can be released in particular on steep shady slopes above approximately 2200 m. Caution is to be exercised adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls. The number and size of avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. <br/> <br/> Avalanches can additionally be released in the weakly bonded old snow in very isolated cases. Such avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on extremely steep shady slopes above approximately 2600 m. <br/> <br/> Mostly avalanches are small. <br/> <br/> Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. The wind will be strong to storm force. As a consequence of low temperatures and the occasionally storm force northwesterly wind, the snow drift accumulations will increase in size. The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on shady slopes at elevated altitudes. <br/> <br/> Shady slopes above approximately 2600 m: Faceted weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. <br/> <br/> The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. A little snow is lying in all altitude zones. Steep south facing slopes: Hardly any snow is lying. The wind slabs remain prone to triggering. They represent the main danger. 2025-12-30T16:00:00Z Lawinenwarndienst.ktn.gv 2025-12-30T16:00:00Z 2025-12-31T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 1 1 drifting snow steady 2025-12-31T16:00:00Z 2026-01-01T16:00:00Z Fresh wind slabs require caution. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found at elevated altitudes. The fresh and older wind slabs can be released in isolated cases. This applies in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in gullies and bowls at elevated altitudes. The prevalence of such avalanche prone locations will increase with altitude. Mostly avalanches are small. <br/> <br/> Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. The fresh and older wind slabs are lying on the unfavourable surface of an old snowpack on wind-protected northwest, north and northeast facing slopes. <br/> <br/> The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations. In all altitude zones a little snow is lying. Hardly any snow is lying on south facing slopes. Low avalanche danger will persist.
