Hochschwab Mountains

Avalanche danger low. The amount of snow is low.

In high altitudes small amounts of snowdrift accumulations have formed which partially are on top of faceted snow which can be considered as weak layers in rare cases. The snow surface is hard in high altitudes. Blown-off areas are eventually icy. Weak layers in the snow base (kinetic metaphorphosis) and is hardly prone to triggering. On sunny slopes the surface got wet, it is hardly possible to settle during the night due to cloudiness.

Monday night will be predominantly cloudy and on Tuesday clouds are dominating the weather in Styria. In some places it can clear up with the foehn-like southwesterly winds. During the course of the day the mountains will start getting foggy beginning from the west side. The force of the southern winds will increase in the afternoon and in exposed areas strong winds are possible. Temperatures at noon are around 2 degrees in 2.000 and around 5 degrees in 1.500 m.

Increasingly coller mountain weather with some precipitation. The avalanche danger stays low.

Avalanche danger low. The amount of snow is low.

Still low avalanche danger. Danger spots can be located in high altitudes in shady, extremely steep areas. There slab avalanches and driftsnow accumulations could be triggered. Gliding snow avalnaches in steep grass-slopes cannot be ruled out.
