Avalanche Activity
Wetness and weakness of snowpack as day progresses
Avalanche danger is MODERATE. Due to higher temperatures and solar radiation on Saturday, naturally triggered wet-snow and glide-snow avalanches are expected, mostly medium sized, also larger. Avalanche activity will swiftly increase, esp. on S/E facing slopes below 2400 m, in late morning, then spread to all aspects over the course of the day. Backcountry tours should pay close heed to the march of time during the day, and its results.
Snowpack Structure
The snowpack has insufficient outgoing radiation at night when skies are cloudy. On the surface only a thin melt-freeze crusts can form which swiftly softens in the morning. The stable snowpack means that most avalanches will be glide-snow avalanches and loose wet-snow avalanches.
Weather Forecast
Exceptionally high temperatures! Cloudy nocturnal skiees. On Saturday, lots of sunshine, excellent visibility, light winds. Only in high-alpine zones of the Tauern will the southerly winds be brisk. Focus: mild air, record-breakingly mild. At 2000 m: 11-12 degrees; at 3000 m: 5-6 degrees, highly unusual for this juncture of the season.
Tendency
High wet-snow/gliding snow activity will persist.
