But then an unforeseen event occurs and shakes up the gloomy backdrop!
Winter drags on and everywhere you look you're crawling along at the average level. At the campfires of the freeride tribe, old men tell their stories from the 2000s and the youngsters marvel in disbelief at legends such as "Nordstau" and 1m of fresh snow down to below 1000m, only to laugh and say: There's no such thing, because today was really epic, because we only had to carry from 1500m!
The parallels to the aforementioned arthouse movie are striking, because there is a real northern storm on the horizon, which throws everything into disarray. And essentially only in the forgotten part of Austria, where people drink Gösser and Stiegl and the IPAs from Innsbruck are just stories from abroad.
Alert period and areas
It's snowing from eastern Switzerland to the Schneeberg, with the core from Salzburg eastwards.
The alert lasts until Saturday evening. In the west with breaks, in the east there are only different intensities.
