Clouds will predominate, especially the southern massifs will have poor visibility and summits in fog. On the Carnic Main Ridge and in the Karawanken, a bit of drizzle is possible, snowfall above 1400-1700m. Elsewhere it will remain dry. Brief spells of brightness are possible in the afternoon in the northern massifs. The SW winds will initially be strong, even stormy-strength in exposed terrain, then shift to northwesterly in the evening and slacken off measurably. At 1000m: +6 degrees; at 2000m: -1 degree. Source: GeoSphere Austria Isolated danger zones in gullies and bowls Older and fresher snowdrift accumulations are generally small-sized, triggerable only in isolated cases, esp.on wind-protected shady slopes above 2000m, esp. in transitions into gullies and bowls and at the foot of rocky cliffs and behind protruberances in the landscape. Apart from the risks of being buried in snow masses, the danger of being swept along and forced to take a fall require consideration. Older and fresh snowdrifts blanket a weak old snowpack, esp. on wind-protected shady slopes. Clear nighttime skies are forecast, with low temperatures and low air moisture.

Source: GeoSphere Austria Be careful of snowdrifts. Freshly generated snowdrift accumulations are small-sized yet still often prone to triggering, particularly in gullies and bowls above 2400m along the Salzburg border. Avalanches can in isolated cases fracture down to more deeply embedded layers in the old snopwack. Apart from the risks of being buried in snow masses, the danger of taking a fall and being swept along also require consideration. Freshly generated and older snowdrift accumulations lie deposited particularly above 2400m were depositedon W/N/E facing slopes. More deeply embedded inside the old snowpack are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. on shady wind-protected slopes. Clear skies are forecast, with low temperatures and low air moisture. Thus, the snowpack will expansively metamorphose during the nocturnal hours.
