Persistent weak layers
- Above 1,800 m
Avalanche danger low, very little snow.
The avalanche danger is low. Only in some places in high altitudes an extremely steep and shady gullies and bowls small slab avalanches are possible. In case of triggered avalanches risk of injuries is more likely than risk of being buried.
The snow cover is unusual thin for this season and southern slopes as well as exposed areas are predominatly bare or icy. An area-wide, coesive snow base is only existing in blown-in gullies and bowls and shady high-altitude slopes. That snow cover is charactized by equilibrium (isothermal) metamorphosis. It is succession of soft layers on the surfacs, partially powder snow, and faceted snow crystals with melt-freeze crusts.
Tuesday night stays clear in the Styrian mountains and the day will be sunny. Only weak to moderate south winds and Temperatures at are between -2 in the beginning of the day to +2 degrees in 2.000 m.
The avalanche danger stays small.
