With icy temperatures in the lowlands and milder weather in the mountains, Geosphere Austria announces a changeable week with fog, sunshine, rain and snowfall.

The weather in the coming week will be cold in the lowlands and mild in the mountains. On Monday, fog and high fog will persist regionally in the north and east, while from the early morning hours, some high and medium-high cloud fields will move across the sky from the south. The sunniest weather is expected to remain from Vorarlberg to Upper Austria. It will be minus eight to zero degrees in the morning and a maximum of zero to ten degrees during the course of the day, forecasts Geosphere Austria.

Early temperatures remain frosty.
A weak disturbance zone on Tuesday will bring dense clouds in many places. On the southern side of the Alps, in the central region and occasionally in the east, light rain or drizzle may lead to black ice forming on the still sub-freezing ground. The snow line will be above 1,000 meters above sea level. Early temperatures will be minus six to plus one degree. Daytime highs will be between zero and eight degrees.

The weather will be calmer on Wednesday. However, some fog and high fog patches will persist over the lowlands in the north, east, and southeast, as well as in the southern basins and the Rhine Valley. Away from the fog, the sun will mostly shine unclouded. The day will start at minus nine to minus one degree Celsius, with daily highs of minus two to plus nine degrees, with the highest values in the west.

Rain and snowfall are expected on Friday
On Thursday, clouds will gather in the western half of the country during the day, and it will start to rain in the afternoon. The snow line will be between 900 and 1,200 meters. Further east, it will remain friendlier, but there will also be some persistent fog and high fog patches over the lowlands. Minus five to plus three degrees are the forecast lows, and one to ten degrees are the expected highs.

On Friday, dense clouds, rain, and snowfall will move through. The east-west snowline will be between 500 and 1,500 meters. However, the weather will improve again from the west as the day progresses. Early temperatures will range from minus three to plus three degrees, with three to nine degrees highs.
