Significant avalanche risk (level 3) and good weather at the weekend – This combination includes explosives. The memories of the first weekends in February 2022 and 2023 are also not a good appearance. At that time, nearly ten avrol had to be complained.
There were already avalanche alarm this week. Countless people were spilled in the accidents. A German variant driver (30) was still in a mortal danger on Friday.
Avalium position remains delicate
The danger level in Tyrol now fell from level four to level three, considerable danger. Nevertheless, the weak old snow layer of Christoph Mitterer from the Tyrolean Avalanche -warning service is still very concerned. “Unfortunately, the situation does not improve that quickly,” says the expert.
“It is important to avoid large, steep slopes and stay in the flat site,” the expert emphasizes. On Saturday and Sunday the danger above the forest border is “considerable” – level three.
Compare with 2022 and 2023
As a reminder: most accidents are statistically in this hazard situation. And on the date of the first February weekend, bad memories of 2022 and 2023 wake up. At that time there were eight or seven avalanche nut in Tyrol! And another parallel: in 2023 there was also a danger level.
The reasonable weather, that is predicted, especially for Sunday, the situation will probably tighten. Experience has shown that on the first beautiful day after bad weather a particularly large number of tourers and variant drivers were deposited. “The winter athletes must behave defensively,” Mitterer emphasizes.
Emergency troops prepare for
