Tomorrow, Wednesday, visibility will often be limited by dense clouds and a few light snow showers will pass through during the day. Winds from the north will be weak to moderately strong, brisk at higher altitudes in the Tauern mountains with gusts of around 50 km/h. The temperature at 2000 metres will be between -9 and -6 degrees, at 3000 metres between -15 and -10 degrees. Fresh, prone to triggering wind slab snow, persistent weak layer problem in the higher elevations The avalanche risk is considerable from the sparse high forest upwards and low below. The fresh wind slab is prone to triggering and can be triggered in many places with little additional load; slab avalanches can reach medium size. All aspects and both adjacent to ridgelines and steep terrain far from ridgelines are affected. Drift snow areas are partly covered with snow and are difficult to recognise. At high altitudes (especially on western, northern and eastern slopes), avalanches can also penetrate the persistent weak layer and occasionally become large if there is a large additional load. Be careful at transitions from lots of snow to little snow. In windless areas, there is 20 to 40 cm of new fallen snow from the last two days, depending on the area, while exposed places are heavily blown and snowdrift accumulations are correspondingly thick. Underneath is settled wind slab snow from the last week. This came to rest on an old snowpack, which is interspersed with faceted crystals and deep rime (also in combination with crusts) both in the transition area and deeper inside. This weakens the structure down to ground level. Although fractures are still possible here, they are most likely to occur within the fresh snow packs. Mixed weather with some snowfall and wind leads to a slow reduction in avalanche danger. decreasing 2026-04-01T15:00:00Z 2026-04-02T15:00:00Z 2026-04-01 2026-03-31T15:11:17Z 2026-03-31T15:00:00Z 2026-04-01T15:00:00Z true Totes Gebirge South Dachsteingebiet Mürzsteger Alpen Hochschwabgebiet Eisenerzer Alpen Triebener Tauern Rottenmanner Tauern Schladminger Tauern North Wölzer Tauern North Ennstaler Alpen low 1500 all_day considerable 1500 all_day wind_slab 1500 SW S E W SE NE all_day slab persistent_weak_layers 2000 NW N NE all_day slab The snowfall will subside almost completely during the night to Wednesday.

Fresh wind slab, considerable avalanche danger! The avalanche danger is rated as "considerable" above 1500 metres. New fallen snow and persistent wind lead to extensive snowdrift accumulations, some of which are prone to triggering. Avalanche prone locations are mainly in gullies, bowls and behind terrain edges and sometimes extend down into forest aisles. Aspects from east to south to west are particularly affected. In some places, the accumulation of drifting snow can be triggered by slight additional load as a mostly medium-sized slab avalanche. Since Monday, up to 35 cm of new fallen snow has fallen in strong northerly winds. The resulting snowdrift accumulations, some of which are thick, are deposited on a largely stable old snowpack. There are weak layers in the wind-driven snow and occasionally, in shady high altitudes, also in the snow base, fundament (persistent weak layer problem). Clouds will continue to accumulate from the north on Thursday, with short snow showers still possible. Strong north-westerly winds are blowing, especially on the eastern edge of the Alps. The wind slab problem is slowly easing. decreasing 2026-04-01T15:00:00Z 2026-04-02T15:00:00Z 2026-04-01 2026-03-31T15:08:33Z 2026-03-31T15:00:00Z 2026-04-01T15:00:00Z true Gippel - Göllergebiet Rax - Schneeberggebiet Türnitzer Alpen Ybbstaler Alpen low 1200 all_day considerable 1200 all_day wind_slab 1200 SW S W SE E NE all_day slab In the night to Wednesday, the snowfall on the northern side of the Alps will decrease significantly or almost completely.

Avalanche prone locations can be found adjacent to ridgelines and distant from ridgelines in almost all aspects. Snowdrift accumulations are mainly located in gullies, bowls and behind terrain edges down to forest aisles. Slab avalanches can reach medium size. Defensive behaviour is required when venturing into open terrain. Since Monday evening, up to 25 cm of new fallen snow has fallen in combination with gale-force winds in some places. This covers the snowfall of the past week, which was also heavily influenced by the wind and relocated accordingly. Relevant weak layers are mainly in the windslab snow and at the transition to the predominantly stable old snowpack. In the old snowpack, faceted crystals or floating snow are still present in places at shady high altitudes. However, these are currently hardly prone to triggering and do not pose a significant avalanche problem. At lower altitudes, there is less snow overall, in particular on sunny slopes. The wind slab problem is diminishing.

The avalanche danger above the tree line is rated as "moderate". Above the tree line, fresh snowdrift accumulations can sometimes still be triggered as slab avalanches by low additional loads.

Fresh wind slabs can be triggered as small or medium-sized slabs in all aspects, even under low loads. Avalanche prone locations are mainly in gullies, bowls and behind terrain edges, also distant from ridgelines. Take particular care on very steep western, northern and eastern slopes above around 2000 metres. Transitions from little to more snow are particularly unfavourable. The snow surface is characterised by the north-westerly storm of the last few days and this is also depositing fresh wind slab snow. It covers an unfavourable old snow surface above the tree line. Breaks are possible between the drift snow layers and at the transition to the persistent weak layer. The old snowpack is particularly weakened on western, northern and eastern slopes above around 2000 metres by layers of faceted crystals and deep frost as well as by a foundation of floating snow close to the ground.

Nevertheless, isolated pillows of wind drifted snow can be triggered as small slab avalanches. Persistent winds still lead to the formation of small pillows of wind drifted snow, which are deposited on a hard old snowpack and are usually sufficiently bonded to it.

Pillows of wind drifted snow are occasionally prone to triggering and can be triggered by individuals as a small slide. However, the risk of burial is low. There have been repeated snowfalls on the Hochwechsel and in the Bucklige Welt in the last few days in conjunction with mostly strong to stormy winds. The new fallen snow was transported intensively and deposited as wind slab, especially in forest aisles and at higher altitudes. Where there is an old snowpack, the drift snow packs are deposited on it and can slide off. Breaks within the drift snow layers are also possible.
