Source: GeoSphere Austria Main danger: weak layers in old snowpack Avalanches can be triggered even by one sole skier, esp. on shady wind-protected slopes. Isolated danger zones occur also on sunny slopes which are little skied on in high alpine terrain, in isolated cases releases can grow to large size. Remote triggerings are possible, particularly treacherous are the foot of rock walls. A defensive route selection is important. In addition, on wind-loaded slopes, surface layers can be triggered in some places, the releases mostly small but easily triggered. In the major areas of precipitation, isolated and mostly small glide-snow avalanches are possible. Shady wind-protected slopes above 2400m: in the lower part of the old snowpack there are faceted expansively metamorphosed weak layers evident. On shady slopes where the snow is rather shallow above 1800m: fresh snow and drifts blanket a weak old snowpack. Shady slopes below 1800m: the fresh snow lies atop a hardened crust. Weak layers in the old snowpack still demand caution steady 2025-02-02T16:00:00Z 2025-02-03T16:00:00Z 2025-02-02 DP1 2025-02-01T16:00:00Z 2025-02-01T16:00:00Z 2025-02-02T16:00:00Z false Nockberge Southern Nockberge Goldeck Group Central Karnian Alps Central Gailtal Alps Gailtal Alps West Lienzer Dolomites Villacher Alpe low 1800 all_day moderate 1800 all_day persistent_weak_layers 1800 W NW E N NE all_day slab gliding_snow SE W S E SW all_day glide Radiantly sunny weather on Sunday.

Source: GeoSphere Austria Caution: snowdrifts and weak layers in old snowpack Avalanches can be triggered by one sole skier in some places, particularly on shady wind-protected slopes in zones. Danger zones and likelihood of triggering tned to increase with ascending altitude. Avalanches can grow to medium size. In addition, in places avalanches can be triggered in the surface layers, releases usually small but easily triggerable. On extremely steep sunny slopes, increasingly frequent small moist loose-snow avalanches are possible. Isoalted mostly small glide-snow avalanches are possible. There was local snowfall. The SW winds transported the fresh snow. On shady slopes above 1800m: snowdrift accumulations are often poorly bonded with the old snowpack. In the lower part of the snowpack there are faceted expansively metamorphosed weak layers evident. On shady slopes below 1800m: weather conditions are consolidating the snowpack during the nocturnal hours. The fresh snow lies deposited atop a hardened crust. Extremely steep sunny slopes: solar radiation moistening the snowpack as of midday.
