Avalanche warning for region Helgeland Tuesday 26.04.2022

Danger level 1 - Low avalanche danger

Published:
Favorable conditions, but be careful if the snow is soaking wet.

Avalanche problems

Wet snow (loose snow avalanches)

You can trigger avalanches on a few steep slopes. Avalanches can get large enough to bury or even kill you (size 2).

Loose snow

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.

Snow cover (in Norwegian)

Monday 25. April 2022

Det er kommet noen få cm med nysnø i fjellet de siste par dagene. I lavereliggende områder har det vært mildt de siste dagene, men kaldere vær gjør at snødekket fryser til mange steder. Det gamle snødekket er i stor grad smelteomvandlet.

Det begynner å bli lite snø i lavlandet, særlig ute ved kysten.

Høyt til fjells kan det fremdeles være vedvarende svake lag av kantkorn i snødekket, men disse vurderes ikke til å utgjøre et skredproblem.

Mountain weather

Monday 25. April 2022

2-4 mm precipitation. Rain up to 400 m a.s.l during the afternoon. Breeze from west, changing to fresh breeze from the northwest during the evening. -7 °C to 0 °C at 1100 m a.s.l. Partly cloudy.

Tuesday 26. April 2022

2-3 mm precipitation. Precipitation as snow. Fresh breeze from northwest, changing to breeze from the northwest during the evening. -10 °C to -5 °C at 1100 m a.s.l. Partly cloudy.

Advice

The bulletin is a planning tool and may differ from the actual situation. Always make your own evaluation. To be 100 % avalanche safe, avoid all avalanche terrain.

Avalanche risk assessment

Det er blitt kaldere vær som gjør at det snødekket fryser til og det skal mer til for å løse ut skred. Vær forsiktig i lavereliggende områder hvis snøen er veldig våt, da det kan være mulig å løse ut våte løssnøskred.
