Avalanche Activity

Likelihood of wet-snow slides will rise during daytime hours

Due to daytime warming and solar radiation, likelihood of wet snow slides will increase during the course of the day. Runout zones should be avoided. Some starting zones have already completely discharged. On hardened surfaces, acute danger of falls, esp. in the morning hours.

Snowpack Structure

Nocturnal outgoing longwave radiation will be quite good. The snowpack surface will freeze and be capable of bearing loads in early morning, softening subsequently over the course of the day. As of midday, sunshine and warmth will make the snowpack increasingly wet. Below 1600m there is hardly any snow on the ground.

Weather Forecast

On Sunday, clouds will move in from the southwest, the peaks disappear in fog, gradually rain showers could make themselves felt. In places, strong SW winds. At 2000m: +4 degrees. Source: GeoSphere Austria
