Transcarpathia: please note that the avalanche risk in the mountains!
According to the Ukrainian hydrometeorological center on February 13-14 for if crows fly th the Transcarpathian region III (higher) degree of avalanche danger (V degrees on the international scale). Despite the deterioration of the avalanche situation, Management DSNS of Ukraine in Transcarpathian region encourages citizens to refrain from Hiking in the mountains, as in the case of avalanches such outing could end in tragedy. The scheme of degrees of avalanche danger Risk The degree of avalanche danger The probability of avalanches And the degree Minor (green) Snow cover on mountain slopes is well established and stable Avalanching is possible only with a large additional load on the separate very steep slopes. Spontaneously can occur only the partial shift of snow. A safe environment II degree Reasonable (yellow) Snow cover on steep slopes are not stable enough and fixed, the other slopes are well secured Avalanching is possible if significant additional loads in the first place on these slopes. Spontaneous ascent of avalanches unlikely. The careful choice of the path of movement, especially on the steep slopes specified exposures and altitudinal levels III degree Elevated (orange) Snow cover on steep slopes is not enough secured (moderately or slightly) and not compacted Avalanches are possible at insignificant additional loads on steep slopes. The possibility of spontaneous ascent of medium and single large-size avalanches and cornices Relatively poor conditions. It is necessary to avoid movement in the vicinity of these slopes IV degree High (red) Snow cover is loose on most of the slopes Avalanching is possible on most slopes with little extra stress. Adverse conditions. Need a big experience for movement. The restriction of movement on the slopes V degree Very high (brown) Unstable snow cover on all the slopes Expected mass spontaneous avalanches on all slopes Very unfavorable conditions. It is recommended the rejection of the motion Management DSNS Ukraine in the Transcarpathian regionÏåðåâåäåíî ñåðâèñîì "ßíäåêñ.Ïåðåâîä÷èê": translate.yandex.ru.
