Avalanche Activity

Beware wet snow. Isolated danger zones.

Naturally triggered wet-snow avalanches can be triggered esp. by large additional loading, most releases are small. Danger zones occur on W/N/E-facing slopes. Some rainfall is expected, which will then increase the likelihood of triggerings somewhat.

Snowpack Structure

Weather conditions have led to the snowpack becoming thoroughly wet. Many wet-snow avalanches have already released, many starting zones have completely discharged. 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 Wednesday, instable weather conditions. Following sunny phases during the morning, convective cloud build-up will rapidly generate rain showers, often thunderstorms, during the afternoon. Southerly winds will be mostly light. At 1000m: 16 degrees; at 2000m: +5 degrees. Source: GeoSphere Austria
