On the Main Tauern Ridge, widespread cloudbanks in late morning, as of midday the cloudiness will increase throughout upper Carinthia. Summits will remain in the clear. The W/SW winds will intensify, reach windspeeds of 50 km/hr at high altitudes. At 1000m, +7 degrees; at 2000m: +2 degrees; at 3000m: -1 degree. Source: Geosphere Austria Caution: weak layers prone to triggering in very isolated cases. Danger zones occur seldom. Weak layers in the old snow can be triggered in very isolated cases by one sole skier on steep W/N/E facing slopes above 2300m. Caution in transitions from shallow to deeper snow, e.g. at entry points into gullies and bowls. These danger zones occur seldom. Avalanche releases tend to be small-sized. On very steep sunny slopes, daytime warming and solar radiation make isolated small wet loose snow slides possible. The risks of being swept along and forced to take a fall outweigh those of being buried in snow masses. Shady slopes: in the lowermost part of the snowpack there are faceted, expansively metamorphosed weak layers, esp. on W/N/E facing slopes. Very steep sunny slopes: the uppermost part of the snowpack is well consolidated, with a melt-freeze crust on the surface. Sunshine and higher temperatures during the daytime moisten the snowpack. Highly varied snow depths, depending on wind impact. There is too little snow on the ground for this juncture of the season. steady 2025-02-22T16:00:00Z 2025-02-23T16:00:00Z 2025-02-22 2025-02-21T16:00:00Z 2025-02-21T16:00:00Z 2025-02-22T16:00:00Z false Koralpe Eastern Karawanken Packalpe Central Karawanken Goldeck Group Central Karnian Alps Central Gailtal Alps Saualpe Western Karawanken Eastern Karnian Alps Gailtal Alps West Lienzer Dolomites Villacher Alpe Gurktal Alps South Gurktal Alps Nockberge Southern Nockberge low all_day On Saturday, sunshine by and large until midday.

Caution urged in transitions into gullies and bowls. Danger zones occur seldom. Apart from the danger of being buried in snow masses, the risks of being swept along and forced to take a fall require adequate consideration.
