Avalanche Activity

Intensifying SW winds

Avalanche danger above the timberline is moderate in this region. Freshly generated cornices are instable. Danger zones focus on northern and eastern aspects where there are freshly generated snowdrift accumulations near ridgelines which can be triggered even by minimum additional loading. However, ordinarily Size 2 avalanches are expected.

Snowpack Structure

In the Hochschwab region there is much less snow than in the Niedere Tauern. Wind-bonded snow lies deposited atop a layer of older surface hoar. On Monday night, the snowpack surface will generate a new layer of surface hoar. The snowpack fundament is stable.

Weather Synopsis

In the morning extended sunny spells, in the afternoon cloud cover will move in from the southwest and cover the whole mountain region. As a result of brisk to strong-velocity SW winds the low temperatures will relent somewhat. At 2000 m at midday, -4 to -1 degree expected.

Tendency

No significant change in avalanche danger levels is anticipated.
