Current situation and outlook
Apart from a brief calmer phase today (Wednesday), the northern Alps in particular have been under the influence of cool Atlantic air and a rapidly changing series of fronts for several days, which are constantly being brought in by new waves of low pressure. Yesterday, the retreating trough of the last alert was still determining the weather character, but today the high pressure pushing in from the west is gaining the upper hand. But only briefly: the next warm front will reach the eastern Alps in the evening (this will happen a little earlier in the west). This will continue more or less until the end of the week. The flow will continue to come from the northwest and Atlantic air with various disturbances embedded in it will reach the northern side of the Alps, although it will be warmer than recently. As usual, more details on fresh snow from the currently very talkative PowderOracle. Thursday will be particularly exciting in terms of the amount of fresh snow in the north, but with a higher snow line than recently (around 1500m). In the south, it will remain clear with hardly any precipitation.
