New snow and snowdrift in high altitudes!

Low avalanche danger. A little more danger spots formed due to snowdrift. These are located in gullies and bowls above 1.800 m mainly in the sector east. Slab avalanches can be triggered by high additional loads.

In the last 24 hours it had 10 - 20 cm new snow. The biggest amount was in the area of Hochschwab. In Niedere Tauern and Turrach it had around 10 cm. The new snow landed on surface hoar - on the sunny side on grass. The snow base is thin and shows no significant weak layers.

Clear skies in the morning, couldn’t in the northern region are dissolving quickly. Around noon new coulds and fog in lower altitudes are forming. The most sunshine can be expected in the south. Temperatures in 2.000 m will be around noon-7 degrees.

No significante change of the avalanche danger.
