Wet-snow danger in very steep terrain where there is still lots of snow

Wet-snow danger in very steep terrain where there is still lots of snow

As a result of small amounts of fresh snow and wind, small snowdrift accumulations have been generated locally at high altitudes. Wet-snow avalanches are no longer anticipated. In case isolated avalanches trigger at high altitudes they will remain medium-sized.

Variable outgoing radiation below 2500m. Lower altitude slopes are bare of snow. On sunny slopes the ground is becoming bare of snow up to high altitudes. The snowpack became thoroughly wet up to summit zones over the last few days.

Variable conditions, relatively low temperatures. Sunshine and clouds will alternate, visibility can often be limited by large-scale cumulus clouds. A few snow showers are also anticipated. Snowfall level at 1500m. Temperature at 2000m: -5 to -2 degrees; at 3000m: -8 degrees. Brisk light northwesterly winds at high altitudes.

No significant change expected immediately.
