The small quantity of fresh snow as well as the small wind slabs will be deposited on a quite favourable old snowpack in all aspects and in all altitude zones. This snow can be released by a single winter sport participant in some cases above approximately 2000 m. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in extreme terrain at intermediate and high altitudes and on wind-loaded slopes. The avalanches in these loacations are only small but in many cases easily released. <br/> In addition the hard wind slabs of last week in particular adjacent to ridgelines on north and east facing slopes and at high altitudes are capable of being triggered in isolated cases still. They are lying on weak layers on wind-protected shady slopes. The avalanches in these loacations are rather small and can mostly only be released by large loads. Over a wide area up to 5 cm of snow will fall during the night above approximately 1800 m. The wind will be light over a wide area. The small quantity of fresh snow and the wind slabs will be deposited on a crust in all aspects and in all altitude zones. <br/> <br/> Steep sunny slopes: The surface of the snowpack will freeze to form a strong crust and will hardly soften at all. Very steep shady slopes and adjacent to ridgelines: There is a danger of falling on the hard crust. Rapid increase in danger of dry avalanches as a consequence of new snow and wind. At intermediate and high altitudes probably danger level 2 (moderate) will be reached.
