Fresh snowdrift masses at high altitudes
Fresh snowdrift masses at high altitudes
Avalanche danger is LOW. There are only few small danger zones due to fresh snowdrift accumulations in extremely steep ridgeline terrain and in gullies, where releases are possible. Danger zones difficult to spot. Small loose-snow avalanches possible on extremely steep sunny slopes.
By Sunday morning a total of 5-10 cm of fresh snowfall, more is possible in the Kitzbühel Alps. Winds on Saturday were blowing at moderate to strong velocity from the northwest and will remain above transport strength also on Sunday. The old snowpack is stable. Below 1800 m there is little snow on the ground.
On Sunday, instable weather conditions, with varying visibility and a few bright intervals, repeated minor showers possible all day long. Snowfall down to valley levels in the morning, then during the daytimer mostly above 1000 m. Light to moderate northerly winds. At 2000 m: -7 to -4 degrees; at 3000 m: -14 to -11 degrees.
No significant change expected. Snowdrift masses will rapidly bond with the old snowpack, are unlikely to be triggered.
