Be Aware of Snow Avalanche from Roofs
Photo : Juanma Pérez Rabasco | Over the course of the winter, the snowpack and the avalanche occur and the flags with the sign of "Rasfare" show the danger of snow and ice slide.

The police ask people to be more cautious about the danger of snow sliding from roofs as a result of changing weather. Sven Martin Ege at the Oslo Police District told Dagbladet that almost 90% of all avalanche accidents are caused by the people involved. That’s why it’s so important to be able to recognize avalanche terrain and pay attention to the warning flags. He also added that avalanches can happen anywhere there is enough snow and enough incline.
