Avalanche danger above 1.800 m moderate and below 1.800 m low. The main problem is fresh snowdrift. Danger spots are located in the north sector above 1.800 m. Small slab avalanches can be triggered by an alpinist in extremly steep slopes. Caution behind ridgelines. Due to sun radiation in places wet loose-snow avalanches are possible.
Snowpack
The south wind drifts new snow to the north sector. In high altitudes the fresh snowdrift is either on top af a hard old snow cover or on top of faceted snow. Kinetioc metamorphosis of the old snow cover in high altitudes. In medium altitudes the old snow is moist.
Tendency
Slightly increasing avalanche danger expected for Styria.
