On Monday, it will be mostly cloudy in the south and fairly sunny in the north. The avalanche danger will decrease, but only very slowly in Valais, Ticino and Grisons due to the weak snowpack structure. On Tuesday, snowfall and strong westerly winds will set in from the west. Snow will fall to below 1000 m at first, then the snowfall level will rise as the day progresses. The avalanche danger will increase as the day progresses, especially in the west.

Snowpack structure is unfavourable in many locations in southern Valais, Ticino and Grisons, with distinct weak layers in the middle and lower part of the snowpack that are prone to triggering. Reports of whumpfing sounds and avalanches triggered by human activity, some from a distance, continue to be received from these regions. Snowpack structure is somewhat more favourable on the northern flank of the Alps and in northern Valais, but there are weak layers deeper in the snowpack in these regions too. These may still be triggered, especially where there is little snow and at transitions from a deep to shallow snowpack.
