As a consequence of fresh snow and a strong to storm force westerly wind, avalanche prone wind slabs formed during the course of the night in particular adjacent to ridgelines on northwest, north and southeast facing slopes. The fresh snow and wind slabs of Saturday can be released easily, even by a single winter sport participant, above approximately 1800 m.

The old snowpack remains in most cases well bonded. In some cases various wind slab layers are lying on the smooth surface of an old snowpack. Fresh and older wind slabs represent the main danger. Below approximately 2500 m small and, in isolated cases, medium-sized moist loose snow avalanches are possible. The snowpack remains in most cases favourable. dangerRatingMap Simplified danger rating map of the region https://avalanche.report/albina_files/2018-12-08/2018-12-07_16-00-00/ccd82d46-29a0-41de-9cce-53c236340bf0.jpg website Link to region on the website https://avalanche.report/bulletin/2018-12-08?region=ccd82d46-29a0-41de-9cce-53c236340bf0 2018-12-07T16:00:00Z 2018-12-07T23:00:00Z 2018-12-08T23:00:00Z Avalanche.report https://avalanche.report Eastern Deferegger Alps Schober Mountains Lienzer Dolomites moderate moderate 3 2 2 moderate 1 2 dp6 wind_drifted_snow NE NW E N SE treeline increasing 2018-12-08T23:00:00Z 2018-12-09T23:00:00Z Fresh wind slabs require caution.
