Snow forecast for Austria: where and how many flakes will fall

The weather forecast for the next few days promises interesting developments for Austria. A height low pulls across the country and brings with it both rain and snow. The current forecasts indicate that rainfall in particular is to be expected west of the Horn-Amstetten-Knittelfeld-Klagenfeldfurt line, while other regions usually remain dry. The snow border lies between the deepest locations and 700 meters. For the altitudes between Vorarlberg and Salzburg, the prospects are a bit more promising, here it could be enough for a thin layer of snow.

The weather phenomenon that we know as a height low is when cold air masses drop from large heights. These processes can cause low temperatures in the atmosphere and have direct influence on the local weather.

The Austrian storm center (UWZ) has published a card in view of the upcoming rainfall that illustrates the possible amounts of snow. Up to 5 centimeters of snow can be expected in the mountains of the West. Cities in Innsbruck and Salzburg can also count on small flakes before the weather changes in the evening.

The rainfall remain behavior in this region and are largely limited to the west of Carinthia. Even there, however, the snow limit is between 500 and 900 meters, and in many places it stays dry.

In Styria, the forecast is confirmed that in the afternoon a weather disorder occurs, which also brings with it a change of cloudy. In Upper Styria, light rainfall and snow rain is expected at night. The snow border will drop to 400 to 600 meters, which means that a light snow cover can also arise, especially in the western regions.
