The nights will be mostly clear in the east, but only partially clear in the west and south. During the day on both days, it will be partly sunny with variable cloud cover in the north and often cloudy in the south. Weak showers are possible, especially in the Jura and in the south, then on Wednesday also on the western part of the northern flank of the Alps and in the Prealps. The snowfall level will be between 1400 and 1700 m. The southwesterly wind will be mostly weak at first, but will pick up as the day progresses on Wednesday.
The danger of dry avalanches will not change significantly. The danger of wet and gliding avalanches will increase somewhat as each day progresses. Touring and off-piste descents should be completed in good time.

"}, "avalancheProblems": [{"aspects": ["N", "NE", "E", "W", "NW"], "comment": "Distinct weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack. Winter sport participants can release avalanches in isolated cases. These can be triggered in deep layers and reach dangerously large size. Caution is to be exercised in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow, as well as at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack.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 and are now hardly triggerable by human activity.
In the regions south of a line from the Rh\u00f4ne to the Rhine, the persistent weak layers that have been a feature since the beginning of January are still present. However, the number of avalanche-prone locations is continuing to decrease. Isolated danger signs have still been observed in the last few days, particularly in Grisons and eastern Ticino, and dry avalanches have been triggered in deeper layers of the snowpack, including large ones.
Weak layers in the lower part of the snowpack are being weakened as they become moistened for the first time. Wet slab avalanches are possible as the day progresses. These can occur naturally but can also be occasionally triggered by winter sports participants, at present mainly on sunny slopes below approximately 2600 m. Isolated gliding avalanches are also possible here. Gliding avalanches can become large, especially in the snowier west.
