Much too early in the year – the Sonnblick summit is already snow-free – already!

Date:

Virtually no snow at the Salzburger Sonnblick. And already. This has never happened again since registration started. And they’ve been running for 84 years.

3106 meters high is the Sonnblick, the glacier mountain of the main Alpine ridge in the Goldberg group in Salzburg, just on the border with Carinthia. Normally there should still be enough snow on the summit at this time of year. But he doesn’t. The ZAMG (Central Institute of Meteorology and Geodynamics) reported a snow depth of 0.6 centimeters on Wednesday.

Snow cover disappeared far too early
Two weeks ago, according to the data, there was still a 152 centimeters thick layer of snow. for a week it was still 91 centimeters. But now that peace is gone.

The disturbing thing: The Sonnblick was usually snow-free in the summer, but never this early in the year. The previous snow clearance reports came at the earliest in mid-August. At the moment there must still be a thick two meters of white splendor.
