The avalanche-prone wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. They represent the main danger. As a consequence of new snow and strong wind the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. The fresh and older wind slabs can be released very easily. They are barely recognisable. The avalanche prone locations are to be found in particular on southwest to north to southeast facing aspects above approximately 2200 m and on steep south facing slopes above approximately 2400 m. In particular in shady places that are protected from the wind avalanches can release the weakly bonded old snow as well and reach quite a large size. Caution is to be exercised in particular at the base of rock walls and behind abrupt changes in the terrain, as well as in gullies and bowls. Whumpfing sounds and the formation of shooting cracks when stepping on the snowpack are a clear indication of a weakly bonded snowpack. As a consequence of solar radiation individual loose snow avalanches are possible from midday, but they will be mostly small. 15 to 25 cm of snow fell in the last few days. The strong wind has transported the new snow significantly. Up to 10 cm of snow will fall. As a consequence of the sometimes storm force wind the wind slabs will increase in size additionally. In some cases the various wind slabs have bonded poorly. The wind slabs are lying on top of a weakly bonded old snowpack. The old snowpack is faceted. The snowpack will be generally subject to considerable local variations. Only a small amount of snow is lying for the time of year in all altitude zones. Weakly bonded old snow represents the main danger. steady 2026-01-11T16:00:00Z 2026-01-12T16:00:00Z 2026-01-11 DP5 DP6 2026-01-11T07:38:03Z 2026-01-10T16:00:00Z 2026-01-11T16:00:00Z true Nockberge Central Nockberge South Kreuzeck Group Goldeck Group Villach Alps low 1800 all_day moderate 1800 all_day wind_slab 1800 E N NE NW all_day poor some 2 slab Wind slabs require caution.

Individual avalanche prone locations are to be found also on wind-protected south facing slopes. In isolated cases avalanches are medium-sized. Apart from the danger of being buried, restraint should be exercised in particular in view of the danger of avalanches sweeping people along and giving rise to falls. 5 to 20 cm of snow has fallen since Friday.
