Kaiser Mountains - Waidring Alps

Wet snow requires caution.

Wet snow requires caution.

The early morning will see quite favourable conditions generally. As a consequence of warming during the day and solar radiation small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized wet and gliding avalanches are possible below approximately 2400 m. This applies in particular on extremely steep sunny slopes, as well as on steep, rather lightly snow-covered shady slopes below approximately 1800 m.

The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations above the tree line. At low and intermediate altitudes less snow than usual is lying. The surface of the snowpack has frozen to form a strong crust. Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to gradual softening of the snowpack. This applies especially on sunny slopes below approximately 2400 m, as well as on steep, rather lightly snow-covered shady slopes below approximately 1800 m. Isolated avalanche prone weak layers exist in the bottom section of the snowpack, especially on shady slopes above approximately 2200 m.

The weather will be mild. Slight increase in danger of wet avalanches in the course of the day.
