At least 11 have been killed in stormy winter weather across Europe this week, whole towns in the Alpine regions have been evacuated amid warnings of another four feet of fresh snow expected by Thursday.
Avalanche risks were at their highest level across much of southern Germany and Austria, where several days of heavy snowfalls have caused seven deaths.
A 28-year-old man and a 23-year-old woman who went missing while snowshoeing were found dead near Salzburg in central Austria, while about 40 rescuers with dogs were still searching for two others who went missing while snowshoeing near Hohenberg in Lower Austria, the Austrian news agency APA reported.

In Germany, 44-year-old man died in Wackersberg in Bavaria when he was hit by tree branches brought down by heavy snow, police said.
Authorities also said Monday that a woman who was buried by an avalanche last week in Uri, Switzerland, died of her injuries Saturday.
Also on the weekend, three skiers in Austria were killed by avalanches and one woman in Bavaria died in a weather-related incident.
The Hochkar alpine road and the entire Hochkar skiing region in Lower Austria were closed because of the high risk of avalanches. Residents and visitors were asked to leave the region by the end of the day yesterday.
Austrian authorities warned skiers not to go on the slopes and not drive their cars unless needed. Up to four feet more snow was forecast for the coming days and the alpine country said it was getting mountaineer teams and helicopters ready for possible rescue missions.
In Bavaria, authorities also had to close roads and some train lines because of heavy snowfall and in some parts of southern Bavaria and the Steiermark region in Austria, schools were closed on Monday because of the weather conditions.

In addition to the deaths further south in Europe, police in Norway on Monday released the names of four skiers - a 29-year Swedish woman and three Finns, aged 29, 32 and 36 - who are presumed dead after a 300-yard-wide avalanche was reported last Wednesday in Tamok valley, near the northern city of Tromsoe.
Heavy snowfall and poor visibility had hampered rescue efforts over the past few days.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands was bracing for strong winds. National carrier KLM canceled 159 flights Tuesday to and from European destinations because Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport will use only one of its runways due to the expected storm.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
