New Week Brings Winter Weather in Austria

A low-pressure area over Northern Italy brings continuous dense cloud cover and widespread, light snowfall, including sleet in lower areas, across Austria this Monday. The wind blows from weak to moderate, with lively gusts from the north on the eastern edge of the Alps. Early morning temperatures range between minus four and plus one degree, while the day's maximum temperatures reach between minus one and plus four degrees.

Frosty Early Temperatures in Austria

Decreasing disturbance influence on Tuesday only causes light snowfall or sleet in the north and northeast during the day. In the west and south of the main Alpine ridge, it is already precipitation-free and partly sunny again. The wind blows weak to moderate from predominantly north. The early temperatures range from minus four to plus one degree, the day's maximum temperatures from zero to five degrees.

Wednesday: In the west and southwest, the sun mostly shines, local fog fields in the valleys clear up. Everywhere else, dense, high fog-like cloud fields determine the weather. Only on the highest peaks in the mountainous region is there some sun. The wind mostly blows weakly, in the east also partly moderate from northwest to northeast. The early temperatures range from minus six to plus one degree, the day's maximum temperatures from minus one to plus four degrees.

Minus Ten Degrees on Friday Morning

With increasing air pressure, calm weather sets in on Thursday and with the supply of dry air masses, the chances of sun also increase a little in the eastern half. Thus, the high fog-like cloud fields dissolve at least regionally during the day, but it remains cloudy in the Danube area, in the Waldviertel as well as in the lowlands in the south and southeast. In the west, however, the sun shines throughout. The wind blows weakly from northwest to east. Early temperatures: minus eight to plus one degree, day's maximum temperatures: minus two to plus four degrees.

On Friday, high pressure influence brings calm and especially in the mountainous region also brilliantly sunny weather. In the lowlands, however, there are some fog and high fog fields. These only dissolve regionally during the day. The wind blows weakly, in the Danube area and in the east also moderately from east to southeast. The early temperatures are at frosty minus ten to minus one degree, day's maximum temperatures at minus two to plus six degrees.
