However, it will remain free of precipitation. In the morning, it will start to snow in the Dachstein region and rain will fall below around 1800 metres. This will spread to the west and south during the daytime changes. The snowfall level in the Hochschab area will initially still be at low altitude but will quickly rise to 1800 metres. In the north-west it may rain up to 2200 metres in the afternoon. At higher altitudes, 5 to 10 cm will accumulate. In congested areas, around 20 cm of new fallen snow may fall locally. Much less precipitation will fall south of the Niedere Tauern. The temperature at 2000 metres will be between -1 and +1 degree, at 1500 metres between 2 and 5 degrees.

Wet loose snow and slab avalanches are possible in all aspects on slopes below around 1800 metres that have not yet been discharged with the arrival of rain. The avalanches can occur spontaneously or be triggered by individuals and reach medium size. At higher altitudes (usually above 1800 m), fresh snowdrift accumulations prone to triggering form, the number and size of which increase with altitude. Slab avalanches in fresh wind slab usually remain small. In extremely steep, shady areas above 2200 m, small to medium-sized slab avalanches can occasionally be triggered by individuals (persistent weak layer problem)." }, "snowpackStructure" : { "comment" : "Outgoing longwave radiation at night is limited; a thin crust of melted snow can only form on the snow surface at the summit level.

Small-scale snowdrift accumulations form at higher altitudes. There are weak layers within the wind slab and in the transition to the old snowpack.
