Watch out locally for small snowdrift accumulations.

New fallen snow is being transported by north-westerly winds onto mostly loose ground. The risk of burial outweighs the risk of injury from stones underneath, the avalanche risk is low.

In some areas, up to 15 cm of new or wind slab snow is falling on apery ground.

On Tuesday, it will start to snow lightly in the morning hours from Lofer to the Osterhorn group and it will be significantly colder. Visibility will be limited in the north right from the start. More clouds will soon move through everywhere, with 10 to a maximum of 15 cm possible by midday. The snow showers will largely subside by the evening. The wind will be brisk to strong from the north-west. Temperatures at 2000 metres will be around -11 degrees.

The avalanche danger remains low despite the increase in fresh snow and wind on Wednesday.
