Avalanche Activity

Low avalanche danger

Low avalanche danger prevails. Avalanche prone locations in the form of snowdrift accumulations occur only in rare cases at high altitude. Atop hardened, melt-freeze encrusted surfaces, the greater risk lies in taking a fall.

Snowpack Structure

Thin snowdrift patches on top of melt-freeze crusts, in places atop surface hoar or on bare ground. There is generally little snow in this region.

Weather Synopsis

Friday will be brilliantly sunny in Styria. In the southern and eastern massifs it will be milder than in the northwest, temperatures at 1500 m will lie between +3 and +6 degrees at 1500 m, and at 2000 m between +1 and +4 degrees. Strong to stormy NW wind will be blowing.

Tendency

Very pleasant weather conditions on Saturday. Brilliantly sunny skies, and NW winds will slacken off significantly. Temperatures at 2000 m: +1 to +4 degrees. Avalanche danger will gradually decrease.
