Saturday starts dry and sunny in the south and east of Austria
In the south and east, Saturday will start mainly dry and sunny. Otherwise, many clouds will remain, and there will be some showers, which will be locally heavy. With a few sunny clearings, thunderstorms may also occur in the east and later in the south and southeast. The afternoon will be mostly sunny and dry in the mountains and generally in the west. Still, it will remain unsettled in the evening from the Waldviertel and Weinviertel over the eastern edge of the Alps to the south. The wind will blow moderately to briskly from the west in the north and east. Otherwise, it will remain weaker. Early temperatures range from twelve to 20 degrees and daytime highs from 24 to 30 degrees.
Midsummer bathing weather on Sunday
An intermediate high influence will provide widespread midsummer bathing weather on Sunday. Sunshine will predominate. Over the mountains, primarily shallow spring clouds will form. Only in the west and south will the tendency for thunderstorms increase in the afternoon. There will be light winds, predominantly from easterly directions. The thermometer shows twelve to 20 degrees in the morning. During the day, maximum temperatures of 28 to 33 degrees.
High-pressure influence on Monday in Austria
On Monday, the Eastern Alps will be under the weakening influence of high pressure in a southwesterly flow. This will bring subtropical air masses, which will increase the summer temperatures up to 36 degrees. In the morning, the tendency for thunderstorms will increase, first on the northern side of the Alps, then in the west. The thunderstorms will form sporadically but have a high damage potential.
Temperatures up to 36 degrees
With decreasing air pressure from the northwest, the southerly flow will strengthen in the eastern Alps, especially in the east and southeast. It will be extremely hot, with temperatures up to 36 degrees. From the west, the tendency for thunderstorms increases significantly during early morning hours.
