Avalanche warning for region Salten Saturday 25.05.2024

Danger level 1 - Low avalanche danger

Published:
Limited forecasts due to strike.
Generally stable conditions. The snow surface in the mountain will refreeze due to lower temperatures. Be careful in steep terrain at lower altitudes if the snow is wet and loose. If so, it could be possible to trigger small wet loose avalanches.

Below you can see a description of the current snow cover information and current weather forecast in the mountains. If your observations deviate greatly from what is described here, the warning will not necessarily apply either. Always make your own judgments or stay away from avalanche terrain.

Snow cover (in Norwegian)

Friday 24. May 2024

Snødekket er i all hovedsak smelteomdannet i de fleste høyder og himmelretninger.
Nysnøen som kom i Pinsa er i all hovedsak smeltet. Snøgrensen kryper stadig oppover og det er stedvis skiføre fra 600 moh. Glidesprekker er utbredt.

Mountain weather

Friday 24. May 2024

Little to no precipitation. Breeze from northwest. -2 °C to 7 °C at 1100 m a.s.l. Partly cloudy.

Saturday 25. May 2024

No precipitation. Breeze from north. -5 °C to 10 °C at 1100 m a.s.l. Partly cloudy.

Avalanche risk assessment

Generelt stabile forhold og ikke noe utpreget skredproblem.

Kaldere vær og nattefrost i fjellet stabiliserer den våte snøen. I lune og bratte solvendte heng kan overflata blir våt nok til at det fortsatt er mulig å løse ut små, våte løssnøskred, men utbredelsen er begrenset så lenge det er kaldt.

Hold god avstand til skavler.
