Overnight to Thursday, it will be mostly cloudy and there will be widespread light snowfall above approximately 1400 m in the north. During the day, it will gradually clear up in the west and south, but it will only be partly sunny on the central and eastern parts of the northern flank of the Alps and in northern Grisons. The wind will be mostly light and shift from a southerly to a northerly. Thursday night into Friday will be mostly clear. During the day it will be mostly sunny in the north and partly sunny in the south. The southwesterly wind will pick up as the day progresses. It will be appreciably milder in the north.
The danger of dry avalanches will increase slightly on Thursday, especially on the northern flank of the Alps. Elsewhere, it will not change significantly. The danger of wet and gliding avalanches will increase a little during the course of the day, especially in the north on Friday. Touring and off-piste descents should be completed in good time.

The number of places where avalanches can be triggered by human activity in the weak layers of the old snowpack are continuing to decrease. However, any avalanches may still become large.
In the regions north of a line from the Rh\u00f4ne to the Rhine and in the extreme west of Lower Valais, weak layers in the snowpack are mostly thickly covered. Triggering by human activity is unlikely.
As a consequence of the falling temperatures, the continued moistening of the snowpack and deeper weak layers is slowing down. Gliding avalanche activity is continuing to decrease. Gliding avalanches can however become large, especially in the snowier west.
