Mildværet søndag har gjennomfuktet snøen høyt til fjells. Over mildværsgrensen har kraftig vind og snøvær sannsynligvis ført til en vindpåvirket snøoverflate med store ansamlinger av fersk fokksnø i leområder.
Det finnes vedvarende svake lag med kantkorn under skarelag, men disse er trolig svært vanskelig å påvirke. Det er knyttet usikkerhet til utbredelsen av lagene.
