PowderAlert 11 2020/21 | After the Südstau is before the Südstau!
02/06/2021 • Lars OelmannIs the snow melting everywhere in the foehn and further up there are deep layers of weak snow? No, not everywhere. A small, albeit not very Gallic region is bucking the trend this winter! -

PowderAlert 7 2020 /21 | Start of a series?
01/20/2021 • Lars OelmannUllr is getting into the corona streaming business in a big way and, if the crystal ball is anything to go by, wants to delight us with a whole season of more or less exciting weather conditions. As a pilot episode, he gives us something tried and tested to keep the freeriders happy and sends a short, normal südstau alarm. -

PowderAlert 4 2020 /21 | Powder between the years in the southeast and west
12/27/2020 • Lars OelmannIt's snowing again! Ullr at least tries not to cause us any more frustration this year and gives us a second helping in the south. Treeskiing at last! -

PowderAlert 2 2020/21 | Mr. Ullr? More please!
12/07/2020 • Lars OelmannIt's served. In large parts of the Southern Alps, we are still nibbling on the sumptuous powder menu of the last few days, and Ullr is already preparing dessert! -

PowderAlert 15 2019/20 | More Powder.
03/01/2020 • Lars OelmannOn the way back to a normal season? After the rather tough course of this winter, some regions, at least in the west, are now on the way to an average season. There is a base and it continues to snow. Ullr is also making a rendezvous in the south-east and there's still plenty of snow above 1800m. -

PowderAlert 8 2019/20 | The usual Suspects - Südstau ahead.
12/16/2019 • Lars OelmannThe traffic jam has cleared and the west highway has been closed by Ullr. After all, our Scandinavian god is still not idle and is once again turning his attention to the south of the Alps. -

PowderAlert 3 2019/20 | The return of the südstau knights
11/16/2019 • Lars OelmannThe 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! -

PowderAlert 1 2019/20 | First attempts at sliding in the south at last
11/11/2019 • Lars OelmannNew winter, new happiness. All aboard the Pow Train! Uh, or something like that. Nice to be back. Now that there's a minimal base from 2000-2200m, which even goes further down in places, you might even be able to ride the upcoming minidump carefully. Ullr is slowly warming up and will be sending some supplies until Wednesday evening to even out the settlement. In the east, however, there could already be quite a lot after this alarm. -

PowderAlert 12 2018/19 | The alpine touring season is over!
03/06/2019 • Lars OelmannIt's done. After a few small snowfalls over the last few days, none of which exceeded 30 cm, there is now finally some more snow in alarming quantities. Unfortunately only on a very small scale, but the medium term gives hope! Ullr seems to be back from his work abroad in California and is finally making us happy again with fresh snow. You can find more detailed information on the medium-term situation below. -

PowderAlert 23 2017/18 | Easter powder in the south
03/29/2018 • Lars OelmannIt's finally snowing in the south and then perhaps in the north again. Ullr gives its all again in the final retreat battles against spring and gives us an exciting Easter 2018. -

PowderAlert 7 2017/18 | südstau
12/09/2017 • Lars Oelmann
As announced, the alerts continue seamlessly. It has started to snow in the west with the warm front and this will spread to the south. Ullr doesn't do things by halves, because the whole thing will be enormous and produce a massive blanket of snow in the south from a standing start. This will probably be the heaviest dump of the winter so far, but it will be warm and accompanied by foehn storms in the north. However, the amounts will be in the newspaper reporting range. #snowpocalyspenow!
