Avalanche Activity

Beware wet snow. Isolated danger zones.

Naturally triggered wet-snow avalanches will increase with the daytime danger cycle. Wet-snow avalanches can be triggered by winter sports enthusiasts, mostly small releases. Isolated avalanche prone locations lie on very steep high-altitude slopes.

Snowpack Structure

Weather conditions are leading to the snowpack becoming thoroughly wet. Many wet-snow avalanches have already released, many starting zones have completely discharged, the snowpack is thoroughly wet, very little snow in some regions. Nocturnal outgoing longwave radiation hardly exists. The snowpack surface can barely freeze and softens rapidly. On steep sunny slopes and below 1800m there is hardly any snow on the ground.

Weather Forecast

On Holy Saturday clouds all day along the Carnic Alps, intermittent drizzle is possible. Light-to-moderate SW winds. At 2000m: +3 to +6 degrees; at 1000m: +14 degrees. Source: GeoSource Austria

Tendency
