The new week starts hot, followed by cooling and rain showers, according to the forecast of Geosphere Austria (formerly ZAMG).
Today, Monday, there are again up to 35 degrees and thunderstorms. As early as Tuesday, significantly cooler weather will arrive, with highs around 25 degrees Celsius.
Hot start to the week, and thunderstorms
In the western half today, Monday, the first showers or thunderstorms must be expected in the morning, which will intensify and spread further and become more frequent in the afternoon. In the eastern half, exceptionally sunny weather will prevail during the first half of the day. Then, in the afternoon and evening, showers or thunderstorms will occur in many mountainous regions but partly in the flat and hilly areas. The wind will blow moderately to briskly first from the south and then with the thunderstorms from the west, and especially in the north and east, there will also be solid gusts or even storms. After 13 to 21 degrees, 24 to 35 degrees can be expected from west to east.
Cooling on Tuesday
On Tuesday, clouds will increase again and again, and heavy rain showers will occur. Particularly on the northern side of the Alps, there will also be a few thunderstorms. The sun will mostly appear only occasionally, especially in the east and south. The wind will be light to moderate, partly from southwest to northwest. Eleven to 21 degrees at the beginning of the day will be followed by highs of 19 to 26 degrees.
Rain will become less frequent on Wednesday.
Until the morning, the sky will often be cloudy on Wednesday and rain or showers are to be expected at times. Clouds and showers will then become rarer, muddy and wet. It will remain longer along the northern side of the Alps, and most sunshine will be in the south. The snow line will mostly drop to 1,800 to 2,200 meters above sea level; only in the south will it be higher. The wind will be moderate to brisk, in the east and on the mountains partly strong, from west to north. In the morning, temperatures will range from nine to 17 degrees, and in the afternoon, from 15 to 24 degrees, warmest in the south.
Clouds and sun on Thursday
Especially in the south, at least intermittent sunshine is on the agenda for Thursday. In the rest of Austria, clouds and sunny spells will alternate, with a few rain showers, primarily until early afternoon along the northern side of the Alps east of Salzburg and in the north. The snow line will generally rise again to over 2,000 meters above sea level. The wind will blow weakly to moderately in the east initially and briskly from different directions—early temperatures between six and 15 degrees and afternoon temperatures between 19 and 26 degrees.
Friday again, up to 30 degrees
For now, the sun will often shine on Friday; only in the north and east some cloud fields will feel themselves felt until the morning. In the afternoon, spring clouds will form and then, especially along the main ridge of the Alps, a few thunderstorms or rain showers. The wind will be weak to moderate from southeast to west. The lowest temperatures will be seven to 16 degrees, and the highest temperatures during the day will be 23 to 30 degrees.
