Kaiser Mountains - Waidring Alps

A generally favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

A generally favourable avalanche situation will prevail.

Individual avalanche prone locations for dry avalanches are to be found in particular on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2000 m. Mostly avalanches are medium-sized. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. As a consequence of warming during the day and the solar radiation, the likelihood of slab avalanches being released will increase a little. As the day progresses the likelihood of moist snow slides being released will increase a little.

Avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack on shady slopes. Outgoing longwave radiation during the night will be reduced. The weather conditions as the day progresses will give rise to slight softening of the snowpack.

Slight increase in danger of wet avalanches in the course of the day.
