Storm 'Elli' Dramatically Raises Avalanche Risk in BavariaOn January 9, the storm caused three fatalities and significantly increased avalanche danger above the tree line.
- Storm 'Elli' led to slippery roads and three fatalities across Bavaria.
- Strong west winds and snowfall have pushed avalanche risk to a considerable level above the forest line.
- Drifted snow creates an unstable layer at all altitudes that can trigger avalanches under minor additional pressure.
- Avalanche warning level three currently applies about 30% of the winter, when half of fatal incidents typically occur.
The problem is the drifted snow at all elevations.— Warning from the Avalanche Warning Service Bavaria about the dangers of drifted snow.
