On Friday, a cold front from Switzerland will bring unsettled weather with rain and isolated thunderstorms to Austria. The situation will then calm down again in the following days.
Austria can expect changeable weather over the weekend: while a cold front on Friday will bring thick clouds, rain, and some heavy thunderstorms, especially in the west and north, Saturday will be much calmer and friendlier. On Sunday, sunny and warm late summer weather will finally return to many places.
Weather forecast for Austria on Friday
A cold front originating in Switzerland will reach Austria on Friday. “This will cause widespread thick clouds and rain showers in the west and north in the morning,” predict the weather experts at GeoSphere. The sun is only expected to make a brief appearance here. While the sun will still prevail in the east and south in the morning, heavy rain showers are forecast for later in the day. “However, in the afternoon, rain showers and the occasional thunderstorm will spread to the eastern lowlands, Burgenland, and southeastern Styria. With the precipitation, the wind will shift to west to northwest and pick up significantly, especially in the Danube Valley and near thunderstorms,” they say. In the morning, temperatures between 10 and 18 degrees Celsius are expected. Temperatures of up to 28 degrees are expected during the day.
Sunshine returns in parts on Saturday
Saturday will start with local early morning fog in some valleys and basins. “After the last remnants of fog clear, sunny and dry weather will prevail until the evening,” according to the forecast. North of the Danube, some denser cloud fields will pass through during the day, which may bring isolated light showers, but it will remain mostly pleasant. The wind will be light but moderate in the Vienna Basin and on the eastern edge of the Alps, blowing from the north. Temperatures will range between 6 and 16 degrees in the morning, rising to 19 to 26 degrees during the day.
This is what the weather will be like in Austria on Sunday
On Sunday, the weather will be mostly pleasant again, with sunshine dominating from Lake Constance to the Weinviertel region. “Only a few local patches of early morning fog and passing high veil clouds may temporarily interrupt the sunny impression,” GeoSphere predicts. Temperatures will start at 7 to 14 degrees in the morning and rise to a warm 22 to 28 degrees during the day.
