As a consequence of new snow and a sometimes storm force southwesterly wind, further wind slabs will form in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The fresh wind slabs will become increasingly prone to triggering. Individual natural avalanches are possible. In the regions exposed to heavier precipitation this applies in particular. Caution is to be exercised in particular on steep shady slopes in areas close to the tree line and above the tree line. At high altitude and in the regions exposed to heavier precipitation these avalanche prone locations are more prevalent. The fresh wind slabs are barely recognisable because of the poor visibility. Avalanches can additionally be released in the weakly bonded old snow. These avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m, caution is to be exercised in particular in areas where the snow cover is rather shallow, as well as at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Avalanches can reach large size in isolated cases. 20 to 40 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall until Wednesday. The wind will be strong to storm force. The southwesterly wind will transport the new snow. The wind slabs will be deposited on a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on steep northwest, north and east facing slopes. Shady slopes: The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on soft layers. Steep sunny slopes: The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on a crust. Fresh wind slabs require caution. steady 2025-01-07T16:00:00Z 2025-01-08T16:00:00Z 2025-01-07 DP6 2025-01-06T16:00:00Z 2025-01-06T16:00:00Z 2025-01-07T16:00:00Z false Kauner Ridge Western Verwall Mountains Eastern Verwall Mountains Silvretta Samnaun Mountains Western Tuxer Alps Eastern Tuxer Alps Glockturm Range Western Karwendel Mountains Eastern Lechtal Alps Ammergau Alps Weißkugel Range Central Kitzbühel Alps Western Kitzbühel Alps Gurgler Range Central Stubai Alps Allgäu Alps Northern Zillertal Alps Mieming Mountains Western Lechtal Alps Central Lechtal Alps Kalkkögel Grieskogel Mountains Serles Ridge Kühtai - Geigen Ridge Sellrain - Alpein Mountains low 2200 earlier moderate 2200 earlier low treeline later considerable treeline later wind_slab 2200 E NW NE N earlier poor some 2 slab gliding_snow E S SW W SE earlier very_poor few 1 glide wind_slab treeline E NW NE N later poor many 2 slab gliding_snow E S SW W SE later very_poor few 1 glide Increase in avalanche danger as a consequence of new snow and wind, in the regions exposed to a lot of wind caution is to be exercised in particular.

As a consequence of a strong to storm force wind from westerly directions, avalanche prone wind slabs will form in the course of the day in particular in gullies and bowls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. The wind slabs can be released easily, even by a single winter sport participant, in particular on northwest to north to east facing aspects.

During the day: As a consequence of the sometimes strong westerly wind the avalanche prone locations will become more prevalent. An increasing number of mostly small gliding avalanches are possible as a consequence of the new snow. Areas with glide cracks are to be avoided. Avalanches can additionally in very isolated cases be released in the weakly bonded old snow. These avalanche prone locations are to be found especially on very steep shady slopes above approximately 2400 m, caution is to be exercised in particular at transitions from a shallow to a deep snowpack. Avalanches can reach medium size. Over a wide area 10 to 20 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall. As a consequence of the occasionally strong westerly wind, fresh snow drift accumulations will form in the course of the day. Shady slopes: The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals. The fresh wind slabs are lying on soft layers. Steep sunny slopes: The fresh wind slabs will be deposited on a crust.

Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year. Avalanches can be released by a single winter sport participant, in particular on very steep shady slopes at elevated altitudes. Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular in gullies and bowls, and behind abrupt changes in the terrain. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. 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. Over a wide area up to 15 cm of snow, and even more in some localities, will fall until Wednesday. The wind will be strong to storm force. The southwesterly wind will transport the new snow. The wind slabs will be deposited on a weakly bonded old snowpack in particular on steep northwest, north and east facing slopes. Shady slopes: The old snowpack consists of faceted crystals.
