Thursday will be instable with intermittent snow showers. Temperatures are expected to remain wintery. Avalanche danger is not expected to change significantly. Andreas Pecl Translated by Jeffrey McCabe Danger mostly moderate. Caution: fresh small snowdrifts with ascending altitude. 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 1 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 1 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1600 1 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 1 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 1 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 2 2021-04-14T07:30:00+02:00 2021-04-15T07:30:00+02:00 1800 1 drifting snow 1800 wind-loaded steep terrain, ridges, gullies Alpine weather forecast (ZAMG-Weather Service Innsbruck) It will be quite sunny during the morning, then cumulus cloud will gather, fog move in, blocking the sun. However, showers are unlikely. Wintery cold temperatures persist. At 2000m: -8 degrees. Moderate NE winds this morning, easing this afternoon. Snow cover / General info Tuesday brought us another 5 cm of fresh snow, up to 10 cm from place to place. Mostly light, sometimes moderate northerly winds transported the snow at high altitudes, generated fresh small snowdrift accumulations. The snowfall since Monday has often been deposited atop moist, melt-freeze encrusted layers, thus are generally well bonded with the old snowpack. Whereas on shady high-altitudes slopes the fresh snow and drifts were often deposited atop softer, powdery layers, here the bonding is inadequate, often weak at high altitude. Older drifts have been blanketed over, making them difficult to recognize. At low altitudes the snow fell on bare ground. Avalanche danger assessment Avalanche danger is predominantly moderate. Main danger: fresh, newly blanketed and older snowdrifts. Danger zones increase in frequency and size with ascending altitude, are found especially in wind-loaded steep terrain and in freshly wind-loaded gullies and bowls. Small-to-medium slab and loose-snow avalanches can be triggered even by the weight of one single skier. The danger of being swept along and forced to take a fall also requires consideration. In high alpine regions the situation is more critical. Naturally triggered small loose-snow avalanches are possible in steep rocky terrain. On steep grassy slopes, especially where recent snowfall has been heaviest, small glide-snow avalanches are possible. Caution is urged near glide cracks.
