Avalanche Activity

More new fallen snow in the highest parts of the Central Mountains

In the mountains, the last two-day snow episode has seen a significant amount of new snow above about 1500 m. Lower down, it snowed partly (wetter snow) and rained partly. South and south-easterly winds built up snow drifts on ridges and peaks.

Snowpack Structure

The old snow cover, which was mostly sparse, received 50-60 cm of new fallen snow above an altitude of around 1500 m, and more locally, especially in the south of the country. The snow is moist throughout the snowpack and is already fairly well bonded to each other. Winds from the south and south-east have built up on the leeward sides of the ridges.

Weather Forecast

Mostly cloudy and foggy. In some places there will be light snow. In the central mountains there will be light easterly winds. Temperatures will be around -1 °C at 1500 m and -6 °C at 2500 m.

Tendency

Mostly cloudy weather will continue at the start of the week, with occasional showers.
