Geosphere Austria expects sunshine at least intermittently on Monday, especially in the east and partly also in the south. In general, however, clouds will continue to prevail, with some showers expected. Most of the rain will fall from Vorarlberg to Upper Austria and western Lower Austria. “Here, it may rain heavily at times,” according to the forecast.

On Monday, the wind will be relatively weak in the south, moderate elsewhere, and freshening from the west to northwest at higher elevations. Early temperatures will range from 12 to 18 degrees, with highs of 16 to 25 degrees during the day.

In the east and southeast, there will be some sunshine on Tuesday with only isolated rain showers. From Lake Constance to the Mostviertel region, however, rain showers will continue. In the mountainous areas on the northern side of the Alps, rainfall may persist for a slightly more extended period. During the afternoon, the likelihood of showers generally decreases, and some sunshine is expected in the western half of the country. The wind will be moderate to brisk in the east, shifting from west to northwest, with early morning temperatures ranging from 12 to 18 degrees and daytime highs of 18 to 24 degrees.

Intermediate high on Wednesday

A weak intermediate high will bring somewhat more stable weather to Austria on Wednesday. Initially, it will be mostly dry and quite sunny. However, clouds will thicken during the day, and the likelihood of showers will increase, especially between western Lower Austria and Vorarlberg. It will remain predominantly dry in the southeast and east. The wind will be light to moderate from the west. Early temperatures will range from 8 to 16 degrees, with highs of 20 to 26 degrees during the day, with the highest values in the east and southeast.

Under the increasing influence of low pressure, Thursday will be more unsettled again. From early in the morning, thick clouds and rain showers are often present, especially between the Tyrolean lowlands and the Mostviertel region. As the day progresses, the likelihood of showers will increase across almost the entire country. It will likely remain dry only in the far southeast and northeast. In the afternoon, however, the sun will come out more and more everywhere. The wind will be mainly light to moderate, with some brisk westerly winds in the northeast. Early temperatures are expected to range from 10 to 16 degrees, with highs of 21 to 25 degrees during the day.

As things stand at present, the changeable weather is not expected to change much at the beginning of August: “At the beginning of the month, a ridge of high pressure will prevail. Friday will start mostly sunny and dry,” according to the forecast. However, cumuliform clouds will form again throughout the country during the day, and the likelihood of showers will increase. However, most showers will be short and light. The focus of precipitation will be more in the west. The wind will be mainly light to moderate from the west to northwest, with early temperatures of 10 to 16 degrees and daily highs of 21 to 26 degrees.
