Avalanche Activity

Only isolated avalanche prone locations for small releases

Avalanche danger is LOW. In isolated cases, small loose-snow avalanches or glide-snow avalanches can release. For triggering a generally small-sized slab avalanche, greater additional loading is necessary.

Snowpack Structure

The shallow snowpack is quite compact by and large. Marked weak layers are not much evident. Most likely is if the snowpack at ground level or else the uppermost layer release if not sufficiently bonded to the snow beneath it.

Weather Forecast

Visibility is generally good, only in the Lungau will clouds be heavier. The southerly foehn wind will often be brisk. At 2000m: -2 to +4 degrees.

Tendency

On Thursday night a cold front will bring strong-velocity W/NW winds and some snowfall. Fresh, shallow snowdrift accumulations can be freshly formed.
