More recent wind slabs can still be released in some cases in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects above approximately 2400 m. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular adjacent to ridgelines and in pass areas and in gullies and bowls. At elevated altitudes the likelihood of avalanches being released is greater. The wind slabs are clearly recognisable to the trained eye. Mostly avalanches are only small. Even a small avalanche can sweep winter sport participants along and give rise to falls. The fresh wind slabs are in some cases still prone to triggering at elevated altitudes. <br/> Towards its base, the snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The snowpack will be subject to considerable local variations above the tree line. <br/> Sunshine and high temperatures will give rise as the day progresses to significant moistening of the snowpack at low and intermediate altitudes, this also applies on steep sunny slopes. As a consequence of mild temperatures the snow drift accumulations stabilised on Wednesday. These conditions will bring about a decrease in the danger of dry avalanches. steady 2024-01-24T23:00:00Z 2024-01-25T23:00:00Z 2024-01-24 DP6 2024-01-23T20:02:17Z 2024-01-23T23:00:00Z 2024-01-24T23:00:00Z true Kauner Ridge Weißkugel Range Central Kitzbühel Alps Western Kitzbühel Alps Gurgler Range Central Stubai Alps Northern Zillertal Alps Samnaun Mountains Venediger Range Western Tuxer Alps Eastern Tuxer Alps Brandenberg Alps Wilder Kaiser Mountains - Waidring Alps Eastern Kitzbühel Alps Glockturm Range Kalkkögel Grieskogel Mountains Serles Ridge Kühtai - Geigen Ridge Sellrain - Alpein Mountains Eastern Karwendel Mountains Western Karwendel Mountains Upper Ahr Valley Durreck Range Langtaufers Southern Zillertal Alps Southern Stubai Alps Pfitsch Schnals Ridge Southern Sesvenna Group Ortler Range Northern Sesvenna Group Planeil Mountains Saldurn-Mastaun Ridge Upper Passeier Valley low 2200 all_day moderate 2200 all_day wind_slab 2200 NE SE E N NW all_day poor some 1 gliding_snow 2600 SE W E S SW all_day very_poor few 2 Wind slabs represent the main danger. As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes storm force wind from northwesterly directions, mostly small wind slabs will form on north and east facing slopes. Avalanche prone locations are to be found in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain above approximately 2200 m. At elevated altitudes the avalanche prone locations are a little more prevalent and exist in all aspects. The avalanche prone locations are and are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised as well in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. <br/> <br/> More gliding avalanches are possible, even large ones in isolated cases, in particular on steep east, south and west facing slopes below approximately 2600 m, in particular in the regions with a lot of snow. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. <br/> On extremely steep slopes individual mostly small wet loose snow avalanches are possible as a consequence of warming. North of the Inn 5 to 15 cm of snow has fallen since Monday. Less snow than expected has fallen in the other regions. <br/> Up to 5 cm of snow will fall until the early morning. Up to high altitudes rain will fall. <br/> The storm force wind will transport the fresh and old snow. The fresh wind slabs are in some cases prone to triggering. Towards its base, the snowpack is largely stable. Above the tree line snow depths vary greatly, depending on the infuence of the wind. The weather conditions will give rise to significant moistening of the snowpack especially at low and intermediate altitudes. 10 to 15 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. As a consequence of snowfall and the strong northwesterly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form. increasing 2024-01-24T23:00:00Z 2024-01-25T23:00:00Z 2024-01-24 DP6 DP2 2024-01-23T20:02:17Z 2024-01-23T23:00:00Z 2024-01-24T23:00:00Z true Southern Sarntal Alps Eastern Nonsberger Alps low all_day wind_slab treeline NE SE W E N NW S SW all_day poor few 1 Wind slabs require caution. The fresh and somewhat older wind slabs can be released in isolated cases, especially at their margins. Caution is to be exercised in particular adjacent to ridgelines in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. Mostly avalanches are small. Wind slabs are lying on soft layers in particular on steep shady slopes. The old snowpack will be quite stable.
