PowderAlert 3 2019/20 | The return of the südstau knights

Südstau the second!

by Lars Oelmann 11/16/2019
The time has come to really step on the gas. The Oracle is live in alarm number 2 and it's really nice to be able to ride bottomless with face shots on day one of the season. The stone skis stay mothballed and the fat slats are happy - nice!

In keeping with the Alarm title, I have completed my training with Master Powda and am now a fully-fledged South Jam Knight.

Meanwhile, far, far away in the Gulf of Genoa: Ullr gives the rebels new hope and sends Alarm number three into the war against the empire of heat and drought. To the Southern Alps, of course.

Areas

The Southern Alps from Monte Rosa to Slovenia with a core from the Dolomites to the Julian Alps. The alert is valid until Monday evening. Then comes alert 4. Yes, again for the Southern Alps.

Wind

Blows and storms. Especially in the east. It's getting dangerous at the top and it's pushing up to or even over the main ridge.

Snow line

In the west 900-1200m, powder from 1300-1500m. In the center, for example in the Dolomites, it will go up to 1500-1900m tomorrow and in the very east there will be almost nothing below 1800-2100m. But the whole thing starts lower, goes up and goes a little lower again towards the end of Monday night.

The amounts

From Monte Rosa to the core 30-60cm, in the core 60-100cm, here and there towards the border triangle IT AT SLO also 120cm. So the largest amounts in the east, but unfortunately only in the high mountains

.

Where should I go?

Trees, because it snows and doesn't clear before alarm 4. I would recommend trees from the Upper Engadine to the west, as the warmth comes in in the east. Depending on local knowledge, real forest is already possible.

Medium-term

A new alert for the south on Monday and then it will probably get warmer, but theoretically remain wet from the south, so it could probably go towards 2000m everywhere with the snow line. So please sacrifice diligently at the Ullr shrine so that this goes off smoothly.

Powder to the people!
and for the oracle in front of whose Womo it is already snowing again/still snowing.
