Wölz Tauern South

Low avalanche danger

At high altitudes, 5-10 cm of fresh snow has been registered. The snow was deposited atop a hard old snowpack at high altitudes. Due to wind impact, snowdrift patches can be generated.

Low avalanche danger

Avalanche danger is low, but shallow snowdrift accumulations require alertness at high altitudes, in isolated cases they can trigger a slab avalanche. Such avalanche prone locations are found in high-altitude ridgeline transitions. Isolated loose-snow avalanches are possible.

Wednesday will begin predominantly sunny and dry. During the daytime, some cloudbanks will pass through, but it will remain dry, the peaks free. At 2000 m: -4 degrees; in Niedere Tauern in the afternoon just below zero. Winds will mostly be light. Thursday will begin with sunshine widespread, and good visibility. Starting at midday, high-altitude and later intermediate-altitude clouds will move in from the south, but it will remain dry. Winds will be moderate to brisk from the south. It will be milder.

No significant change in avalanche danger is anticipated.
