Little snow on the ground. Only isolated avalanche-prone locations.

Little snow on the ground. Only isolated avalanche-prone locations.

Avalanches are hardly possible. Isolated danger zones occur on shady slopes and in gullies and bowls.

There was some regional snowfall. The storm-strength winds will transport the fresh snow, also some of the old snow. Mostly shallow snowdrift accumulations occur from place to place. These accumulations of drifts lie deposited on shady slopes above 1800m atop a rather shallow old snowpack surface. The old snowpack is expansively metamorphosed.

On Saturday, radiantly beautiful and sunny mountain weather, but bitter cold. At 2000m: -12 degrees at midday. Moderate (stronger in exposed terrain) NW winds will be it seem even colder. Source: GeoSphere Austria

No change expected in avalanche danger levels
