    <avalancheActivityHighlights>Stable situation, watch out for areas with new snow.</avalancheActivityHighlights>
    <avalancheActivityComment>In the Tatras and Low Tatras there is only a SMALL avalanche danger, 1st degree. The cooling of the last few days has caused stabilization and freezing of the snow cover. Up to 5 cm of new snow has fallen. Avalanche release is possible only sporadically on exposed slopes with new snow. Spontaneous avalanches are not expected.</avalancheActivityComment>
    <snowpackStructureComment>The snow cover froze and stabilised due to Monday's cold snap. Up to 5 cm of new snow has been added locally on its surface during Monday, and light snowfalls will continue. Fresh to strong mainly north-westerly winds up to 15 m/s will blow. This will transport snow mainly to leeward SE exposures. Continuous snow cover will be located between 1300 and 1700 m above sea level, depending on orientation. Its height reaches 30 to 150 cm, with the most snow in the Low Tatras.</snowpackStructureComment>
