Türnitzer Alpen

Little snow, the snow is falling.

Little snow, the snow is falling.

The avalanche risk is low. Small loose snow slides from slopes that have not yet been unloaded cannot be completely ruled out, but most areas have already been unloaded.

Due to the very mild weather, the snowpack is damp and wet up to high altitudes. Only on northern slopes was a melt-freeze crust able to form in places. The faceted crystals, which have long weakened the foundation of the snowpack in shady gullies, have been largely transformed by rain and melting. There is usually only a little snow up to the summit regions.

The evening and night into Tuesday will be free of precipitation with mostly few clouds in the sky. A few patches of fog could spread over the valleys. Sunshine will initially predominate on Tuesday. From midday, however, the first cumulus clouds will form, which may bring the odd rain shower until the evening. The temperature at an altitude of 1500 metres will be between 1 and 4 degrees. Winds will be weak to moderate with gusts of around 30 km/h from the south-east to west. In the event of localised rain showers, the snowfall level will usually be above summit level.

On Wednesday, it will be slightly changeable again with rain showers in the afternoon. The snowfall level will mostly be above summit level. High pressure will prevail from Thursday. The avalanche risk remains low.
