Avalanche warning for region Voss Friday 03.03.2023

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. The overlying slab is soft. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes E, SE, S above 1000 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow near surface • Within half a meter • Easy to trigger • 1 - Small • Few steep slopes NE, E, SE, S, SW above 800 masl • Lett snøvær legger opp ferske flak trolig få heng. Legger seg på overflatekant og trolig noe rim også. Trolig småe skred.

Avalanche Problems

• Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. • Difficult to trigger • N above 900 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. • Difficult to trigger • N above 800 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Poor bonding between crust and overlying snow • Within half a meter • The overlying slab is soft. • Very difficult to trigger • 1 - Small • Few steep slopes N above 900 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes N, NE, E, SE, S, SW, W, NW above 900 masl • Vanskelig å si hvor vi finner dette svake laget. Men en kan tro at dette svaket laget finnes alle himmelretningen. Et kantkornlag under gammel stabil snø

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of faceted snow beneath a crust • Within half a meter • The collapsing weak layer is thin < 3 cm. A big and identifiable crystal in the weak layer. • Easy to trigger • 2 - Medium • NE, E, SE, S, SW above 700 masl • Der snødekket er tynt er kantkorna mest utvikla

• Loose wet avalanche • Spontaneous release • 2 - Medium • Few steep slopes SE, S, SW, W between 1100 masl and 600 masl

Avalanche Problems

• Dry slab avalanche • Buried weak layer of new snow • Within half a meter • The weak layer collapses easily and clean (easy propagation). • Difficult to trigger • 2 - Medium • Some steep slopes SE, S, SW above 800 masl • Skredproblemet gjelder vind frå nord i forrige veke. Det verker som fokksnøen er utan spenninger. Det er observert begynande kantkorndanning under mildværsskare høgt i snødekket. Usikker om dette er eit aktivt skredproblem.
