Avalanche warning for region Indre Fjordane Wednesday 17.01.2024

Avalanche Problems

• Loose dry avalanche • Poor bonding between crust and overlying snow • Within a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 800 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 • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 700 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium

A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 800 masl • Fra tregrensa, mer vindtegn desto høyere i terrenget.

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Very difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 1000 masl • Dette skredproblemet ligger relativt dypt i snødekket. Det skal stor tillegsbelastning for å påvirke dette laget. Der snødekket er tynt eller som ei gruppe. Dette laget var mulig å finne fra tregrensa på håndtester. Men her virket snødekket fuktigere og det virket ikke spesielt aktivt. Kunne i skjerma formasjoner finne rester av overflaterim i dette laget.

A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes NE, E, SE, S above 800 masl • Skredproblem 1 i nedføyka nysnø kan oppstå der det er danna seg flak over det svake laget.

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow above a crust • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Difficult to trigger • 3 - Large • Few steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 1000 masl • Skredproblem 2. Der snødekke er tynt vil det vere lettare å påverke dette svake laget.

Viser også liten evne til bruddforplantning. Få heng med store henteområder der vinden har tatt litt meir kan ha fastare flakdanningar som kan gi større skred opp i str 3.
