Lower Tauern South

During the daytime changes, wet avalanches are more likely to be triggered.

Tuesday night will be mostly clear or partly cloudy. On Tuesday, the sun will shine. Only a few spring clouds will develop during the day. At high altitudes, visibility restrictions will be possible, at least locally at times. The wind will blow moderately to briskly from the northwest. Temperatures at 2000 m will be between 0 and 7 degrees, at 3000 m around -1 degree.

Little change.

During the daytime changes, wet avalanches are more likely to be triggered.

From around 2200 m there is a moderate avalanche risk, below this it increases from low to moderate during the day. Small and medium, damp and wet loose snow avalanches and snow slabs are to be expected in all aspects below around 2500 m during the day. Wet avalanches can also be triggered by winter sports enthusiasts. Gliding avalanches are to be expected on typical slopes. In a few places above 2200 m, snow slabs can also be triggered in the extended northern sector in weak persistent layers and reach medium size.

The morning melt-freeze crust softens during the day changes. Heat and moisture increasingly penetrate the snowpack, with dry snow still on the surface only at shady high altitudes. At mid-altitude, the snow is already wet down to the ground. On shady slopes from around 2200 metres upwards, the old snowpack contains angular shapes and deep rime. Fractures are most likely to occur on one of the uppermost crusts and only rarely in the floating snow near the ground. Some of the snow glides off the ground.
