It’s been hot over the past few days, and it’s staying that way: According to weather experts, temperatures are set to rise again in the new week, with peaks of 35 degrees! With the heat, however, the chance of thunderstorms, some of them heavy, will increase again in the second half of the week …

Temperatures will rise noticeably over the course of the week. Meteorologists at UBIMET Austria are even forecasting highs of over 30 degrees in every federal state on Wednesday. “In the west, the peak of the heat will be reached on Wednesday with 35 degrees in Innsbruck; on Thursday, similar highs are also in sight in the very east.”

The week will start with clouds in the mountains and the south, but these will clear quickly in the morning. During the day, there will be a widespread mix of clouds and sunshine. Away from the Alps, the sunshine will dominate, and even in the mountains, there will be very little chance of showers. Temperatures of up to 30 degrees are possible, with the highest values in the Upper Inn Valley and Carinthia.

Tuesday will remain mostly sunny, with only a few scattered clouds over the mountains in the afternoon. Temperatures will rise again; up to 33 degrees are expected. Wednesday will be just as midsummer: the sun will shine from early to late. “In the western and southern mountains, a shower or an isolated heat thunderstorm will form here and there in the afternoon, but it will remain dry in large parts of the country,” says Zimmermann. It will be 30 to even 35 degrees, with the highest temperatures in the Inn Valley.

On Thursday, there will be local showers from Vorarlberg to Upper Austria in the first half of the day. During the day, the sun will still shine frequently, especially in the east and south. Still, in the afternoon, cumulus clouds and some thunderstorms will form over the entire mountain region, bringing large amounts of rain locally. Temperatures will still reach 28 to 35 degrees from west to east.

Friday will be unsettled. Initially, the sun will still be shining in the south and east, but heavy showers and thunderstorms will spread from the west as the day progresses. It will cool down in the west, but highs of around 30 degrees can still be expected in the south and east.

At the weekend, the tendency for showers and thunderstorms will remain high, especially in the mountains and hills. Temperatures will temporarily drop slightly but will stay at a summery level. The next warm-up is expected as early as Sunday.
