Snøoverflaten over skoggrensen er stort sett avblåst eller vindpakket. Det kom noe snø rundt Honningsvåg på mandag så noe snø kan være tilgjengelig for forflyttning her.
Kantkorn under eldre fokksnøflak eller ned mot bakken har fått utviklet seg i det kalde været.
Søndag ble et lite personutløst skred utløst på kantkornlag over gammel skare i et østvendt heng sør for Lakselv.
