So it's snowing everywhere, but otherwise everything is complicated with this alert: There are major uncertainties in terms of amounts and snowfall line, as the development is quite complex with the low moving over the Alps.
Alert period and areas
Alps. So ultimately everywhere, although somewhere towards the north-eastern Alps from the Salzburger Land to the Rax as well as in the eastern Aosta Valley and western Piedmont may not reach alert levels.
The alert is valid until Monday morning and it starts to snow at different times. While the south and the Maritime Alps are already getting snow tonight, it will last until Saturday afternoon in the northern Alps.
Wind
The wind is generally rather restrained in the western Alps and in the low, which is quite large, but in the eastern Alps, where it is more congested and the current is stronger, it can also become stormy. In general, it's also quite stormy in the north before the snowfall thanks to the Föhn, which of course doesn't make the base any better before the fresh snow. It tends to be more suitable for powder in the south-western congestion and later in the north than in the south-east.
It tends to push into the inner Alpine areas in the south-west of France and in the Hohe Tauern in the south-east.
