October surprise: mild weather despite fog on Lake Constance!

winter jackets? Not necessary! The Bodenseekreis continues to have a mild October weather, as meteorologist Jürgen Schmidt from the weather service Wetterkontor explains enthusiastically. The autumnal charm remains with temperatures that are about two degrees above average. Fee just a little rain? None! The precipitation remains below the normal value, but this causes some excitement in the sunshine.

fog surprise in autumn

But here comes the big surprise: Not even 50 percent of the normally expected sunny hours could be counted in this cloudy October! This has to do with the stubborn fog that does not want to give way even in the coming days. Schmidt warns: "The fog is noticeable and keeps the sun in the shadowy existence until the afternoon! It could be particularly creepy on Halloween evening when the little sweets hunters pull through the foggy streets." Fortunately, it remains mostly dry, so that the children can collect their prey with no worries.

mild temperatures and weather views

The mild south flow ensures the fog and affects the temperatures. "If the fog ventures, we can reach up to 16 degrees. However, it lasts longer, it may become single -digit," predicts the weather expert. A real cold shock? Only when November is getting closer, according to Schmidt, "now we are denied the high pressure, which ensures less sunshine and more fog." If you are looking for sun rays, you should plan a trip to the mountains to Vorarlberg - the sun laughs there! The winter forecast also makes you take notice: a mild start to the season is expected, thanks to the high water temperatures in the North Atlantic. So the Bodenseekreis remains an exciting weather region!
