Avalanche warning for region Romsdal Friday 01.03.2024

Danger level 2 - Moderate avalanche danger

Published:
Be careful in lee areas with wind deposited snow, typically behind ridges, ribs and in gullies.

Avalanche problems

New snow (slab avalanches)

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

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)

Thursday 29. February 2024

Over tregrensa er snødekket preget av hard vind. Stedvis er det blåst ned på gammel skare, andre steder småskavler, men også fokksnøflak av ulik alder og hardhet. I skogen myknes føret utover dagen og du finner løsere snø i skogen og enkelte skjermede formasjoner.

Kantkorn rundt skare er tilstede dypere i snødekket, men regnes ikke som et aktivt skredproblem.

Torsdag ingen skredaktivitet eller faretegn observert.

Nysnøen fra mandag er nå ujevnt fordelt etter mye kraftig vind. Torsdag observeres det pågående vindtransport fra vindutsatte plasser i høyfjellet. Gunstige temperaturer gjør at fersk fokksnø stabiliseres fort.

Mountain weather

Thursday 29. February 2024

0-3 mm precipitation. Rain up to 1000 m a.s.l during the afternoon. Strong breeze from southwest. -6 °C to 1 °C at 1400 m a.s.l. Partly cloudy.

Friday 1. March 2024

2-4 mm precipitation. Rain up to 1000 m a.s.l during the afternoon. Breeze from southeast. -6 °C to 0 °C at 1400 m a.s.l. 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

Lite ny nedbør og roligere vind gjør at det ventes lite endring i snøskredfaren.
Milde temperaturer fører til en rask stabilisering av den ferske fokksnøen.

Under mildværgrensa kan det gå enkelte små naturlig utløste våte løssnøskred.
