Avalanche warning for region Heiane Thursday 03.12.2020
Danger level 2 - Moderate avalanche danger
Published:
Be careful in areas with recent wind slabs in areas with continuous snow cover. The wind is picking up and turns to southeasterly direction. Snow precipitation particles will blow towards sheltered areas. Also, snow on the ground will be eroded and deposited in wind sheltered slopes.
Below you can see a description of the current snow cover information and current weather forecast in the mountains. If your observations deviate greatly from what is described here, the warning will not necessarily apply either. Always make your own judgments or stay away from avalanche terrain.

Det var før onsdag lite snø i regionen. Frå onsdag vil eit større snøfall gjere at ein lengst sør i regionen vil finne mykje vindpåverka nysnø over tregrensa. Mest lengst sør i regionen, mellom Dalane/Sirdalsheiane og Åseral.
Ved Blåsjø (1150 moh) i Bykleheiane bles det onsdag norgon frisk bris frå sør.

Avalanche risk assessment
Vinden aukar og dreier til søraustleg retning. Særleg nysnø, men også snø som ligg på bakken frå før, vil fyke over i nye leområde. Snødekket er skrint frå før, men der snødekket no blir samanhengande, vil ein lett kunne løyse ut middels store skred i fersk fokksnø. Skredproblemet vil vere mest utbreidd lengst sør i regionen. Nokre skred kan òg lausne naturleg.
