Avalanche warning for region Indre Fjordane Tuesday 01.02.2022

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW, W above 600 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Many steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, NW above 900 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. The overlying slab is soft. • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW, W above unknown masl

• Observerte ikke i alle sektorer.

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The overlying slab is soft. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 500 masl • Vil være lett å løyse ut i den sist innblåste snøen

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between layers in wind deposited snow • Within a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 800 masl • Der det har vore stor pålagring i løpet av kvelden og natta i uværet vil det fortsatt være mulig å løyse ut, men krev truleg større belastning, og kan gi store skred.
