Snowfall is expected to continue in some parts of Tyrol. While it may snow up to around 600 meters in the lowlands, it is clearing up more and more in the Tyrolean Oberland. Snow on some roads. Snow warning remains in place.

The harbingers of winter have already been here in Tyrol for a few days. This is also creating difficult and dangerous conditions on the roads. Drivers on Pass Thurn, the Gerlosstraße and the Lechtalstraße have to cope with snow-covered roads time and again. On the Arlbergstraße, currently the only connection between Tyrol and Vorarlberg, there is slippery snow in both directions in the Langen area, according to the ÖAMTC. Vehicles over 3.5 tons require snow chains.

The longer the day goes on, the more it should loosen up. Snow and rain move further and further towards the lowlands.

The main focus there will be around the Wilder Kaiser, where the snow line could drop to around 600 meters. Moderate to heavy precipitation is also expected on the Bavarian border, with snow below 100 meters at times. 

The orange (level 3 of 4) continues to apply. According to the UBIMET weather service, up to one meter of fresh snow is possible at high altitudes, and in some places even more. However, it should remain dry in East Tyrol on Saturday.

The province of Tyrol has announced that the Erler Straße between Niederndorf and the German border has been closed due to the persistent precipitation. A local detour has been set up for local residents. "As far as we know at present, the closure on the L209 Erler Straße will remain in place until noon tomorrow, Sunday. The situation will then be reassessed," says the state. The road between St. Ulrich and Hochfilzen was also closed from 3 pm due to the weather conditions.
