Persistent weak layers

Only isolated danger zones
Only isolated danger zones
Avalanche danger is low. Triggering a small slab (most likely above 2000m on shady very steep slopes, at lower altitudes where foehn impact) is possible in a few places. In isolated cases a small glide-snow avalanche is possible.
The fundament is weak (faceted crystals beneath crusts) but fracture propagation is unlikely (lacking slab). On shady slopes there is loose snow, on sunny slopes firn conditions are developing. On sunny slopes the layering is stable, gliding snow masses are being observed only seldom.
Following a predominantly cloudy night, clouds on Monday will initially be generally dense, sunshine only expected in the afternoon. Along the Tauern and in the Nockberge, low-lying clouds will limit visibility. Winds will be light to moderate from east to south. At 2000m: -1 degree; at 3000m: -8 degrees.
No significant change expected on Tuesday
