Avalanche risk assessment
Skredfaren er nå knyttet til områder og høyder der snødekket er tørt. Det kan være lett å løse ut store skred i områder med fersk fokksnø. Store snømengder lørdag og søndag gjør at snødekket må tilpasse seg de nye snømengdene og vil derfor være ustabilt.
Der snødekket ble påvirket av regn lørdag og søndag ventes en rask nedgang i skredfaren.
