As autumn slowly catches up with us, it will get wetter in many parts of Austria over the next few days. But don’t worry—October isn’t over yet, and it still has a few sunny surprises in store for us.
Italian low pressure brings rain and gives the Föhn a break
Over the next few days, an area of low pressure from Italy (i.e., a weather-determining area of low pressure that forms in the Mediterranean region) will influence the weather situation in Austria. Rain is expected in the south and west of the country, while the Föhn wind, which has recently been responsible for the unusually warm temperatures, will temporarily subside. The areas of rain will increasingly spread and cause wet weather in many places.
It will remain dry and foehn in the east
From Flachgau (a region in the north of Salzburg) via the Danube to Seewinkel (an area in the east of Austria), the brisk wind from the southeast to the south will continue. In particular, these regions will remain drier, and rain will be rare. Now and again, the sun may even break through, making for mild fall days.
From Sunday: the familiar mix of fog and sunshine
The typical autumn mix of fog and sunshine will be more noticeable again from Sunday. There will be more fog at low altitudes, especially in the morning hours, which will dissipate during the course of the day and make way for sunshine. However, a weak weather front is expected on Tuesday, bringing more clouds and light rain in some areas.
However, temperatures will remain mild, in a pleasant range between 16 and 22 degrees. These are ideal conditions for autumnal walks or other outdoor activities.
Further outlook: High-pressure weather on the horizon
Over the next few days, there are many indications that high-pressure weather will return. This means stable weather conditions could set in, leading to more fog, especially at lower altitudes. Drivers must be prepared for limited visibility, especially in the morning. According to current forecasts, this weather situation will likely last at least until the national holiday (October 26).
