Avalanche Problem
Wet snow

In the High, Western and Low Tatras there is only a small avalanche danger, level 1.

Due to the previous cold snap (Thursday, Friday), the snow cover has stabilized. During the day the situation on sunlit slopes is slightly worsening, wet snow will be a problem. Avalanches are possible only on isolated very steep slopes, especially with high additional loads. Spontaneous avalanches are not expected except for wet sluffs.

Snowpack

Due to the constant change of positive and negative temperatures, the snow cover at high altitudes froze and stabilised. During the day the snow on sunlit slopes softens and becomes wet and less stable. A continuous snow cover occurs in the Low Tatras from an altitude of about 1200 m and reaches 50 to 80 cm at the highest altitudes. In the Western and High Tatras the snow is from about 1500 m above sea level and mostly reaches only 50 cm.

Tendency

slight deterioration during the day on sunlit slopes, otherwise persistent
