Mur Mountains, Gurktal Alps

Generally low avalanche danger

Generally low avalanche danger

The avalanche risk is low. There is generally very little snow left. Only isolated wet snow slides are to be expected. The risk of entrainment in the fall terrain outweighs the risk of burial.

The predominantly wet snowpack may consolidate somewhat as it cools down. At high altitudes, there is a thin layer of fresh snow in places. There is only a little snow left and the sunny slopes are usually already snowed out.

A few dense residual clouds will persist overnight along the northern side of the Alps, with scattered unproductive showers. From the Gurktal Alps via the Seetal Alps to the Randgebirge, however, the sky will largely clear and it will remain dry. On Tuesday morning, the next dense clouds will soon arrive on the northern side of the Alps, bringing the first showers. Otherwise, the sun will still be shining at first, but clouds will soon make themselves felt in the south too and visibility will deteriorate. From midday, showers will generally become more frequent.

The avalanche danger remains low. The weather gradually calms down on Wednesday. The spring clouds in the afternoon are already significantly fewer and it remains mostly dry. From Thursday, high pressure will ensure very good leisure weather in the mountains, although the wind will blow briskly from the north in places.
