Kaiser Mountains - Waidring Alps

Increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

A partly overcast night. On Thursday it will be very mild. The surface of the snowpack will only just freeze and will already soften in the late morning. The spring-like weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to a loss of strength within the snowpack. Below the tree line only a little snow is now lying.

Slight decrease in danger of wet avalanches as the temperature drops.

Increase in danger of wet and gliding avalanches as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation.

Currently there are quite favourable avalanche conditions generally. As the day progresses as a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation there will be only a slight increase in the danger of wet snow slides. Some small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet loose snow avalanches are possible. In addition the danger of gliding avalanches will increase as the day progresses. Caution is to be exercised in areas with glide cracks.
