Moderate-to-strong W/SW winds will reach speeds of 50 km/hr in the afternoon. At 1000m: 7 degrees at midday; 2000m: between 1 and 5 degrees. Source: GeoSphere Austria. Little snow on the ground. Avalanches are hardly possible in gullies and bowls. The old snowpack is expansively metamorphosed, with a loosely-packed surface with surface hoar and faceted crystals. Very little snow on the ground. Hardly any snow on the ground below 1600m regionally. No significant change expected in avalanche danger levels 2025-01-24T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 2025-01-24T16:00:00Z 2025-01-25T16:00:00Z Avalanche.report 1 increasing 2025-01-25T16:00:00Z 2025-01-26T16:00:00Z On Saturday, pleasant and predominantly sunny weather will prevail with but a few innocuous thin clouds.

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 snowpack, releases are mostly small-sized. 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 on weak layers particularly above 2400m on W/N/E facing slopes. More deeply embedded inside the old snowpack are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. on shady wind-protected slopes. Sunshine and mild temperatures will moisten the snowpack slightly during the course of the day, esp. on very steep sunny slopes. The snowpack is highly diverse even over small areas. There is little snow on the ground.

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 at high altitudes, esp. in transitions into gullies and bowls and at the foot of rocky cliffs and behind protruberances in the landscape. These danger zones occur seldom. Apart from the risks of being buried in snow masses, the danger of being swept along and forced to take a fall require consideration. On very steep sunny slopes, isolated small wet loose-snow avalanches are possible. The snowdrifts blanket a weak old snowpack, esp. on wind-protected shady slopes. The snowpack is expansively metamorphosed. Sunshine and warmth are leading to a moistening of the snowpack during the course of the day, esp. on very steep sunny slopes. The snowpack is highly diverse even over small areas. Very little snow on the ground. Hardly any snow on the ground regionally below 1600m.
