Avalanche Activity

Naturally triggered wet-snow avalanches possible at any time or day or night

Wet-snow avalanches possible at any time or day or night, due to a thoroughly wet snowpack following a night of overcast skies., esp. at the foot of rock walls on the Italian border. Wet-snow avalanches can fracture down to ground level and grow to large size, esp. in zones with sufficient snow. Runout zones should be avoided. Unfavorable conditions for backcountry tours.

Snowpack Structure

Rainfall is anticipated. Weather conditions are making the snowpack thoroughly wet, leading to a loss of firmness inside the snowpack.

Weather Forecast

On Wednesday, gray and wet weather anticipated. Dense clouds will accumulate. A bit of rainfall is anticipated. Southerly winds will be blowing at strong velocity at high altitudes reach 50 km/hr. At 1000m: +16 degrees; 2000m: +5 degrees. Source: GeoSphere Austria

Tendency

Due to rainfall, likelihood of wet-snow avalanches triggering is on the increase
