Storm alarm in Austria: Heavy thunderstorms and heavy rain threaten!

The storm situation in Austria continues to come to a head on June 6, 2025, especially in the north of the country. Current weather forecasts indicate that violent thunderstorms with heavy rain and gusts of wind will threaten from Friday evening. This situation is largely caused by an air mass border that brings wet-warm, high-energy air to Austria, according to a report by 5min.at .

Already at lunchtime on June 6, meteorologists expect a noticeable change in weather that will lead to a temperature drop. The temperatures are between 22 and 28 degrees in the northern regions, while the southeast can reach values ​​of up to 31 degrees. A cold front that runs through at Pentecost could drive away the hot air and thus ensure significantly cooler temperatures.

regional thunderstorms

Ober- and Lower Austria are particularly affected, where strong thunderstorms are forecast with hail and heavy rain. The warnings issued in six federal states affect the areas of the Northern Alps and the Rax Schneeberg area. The thunderstorm will begin on Friday evening and then extend to the northern foothills of the Alps. The first thunderstorms can already be expected in the western northern Alps in the evening and could move to the Danube room, such as uwz.at explained.

The weather conditions are reinforced by a low pressure complex above the north sea and the outskirts that influence the weather in the Alpine region. According to the current warning report, further warnings for thunderstorms can be expected from the afternoon until night.

weekend forecasts and effects

For Saturday, an inconsistent weather is predicted on the alpine north side and in the central mountain country. From early on, showers threaten there and the risk of strong thunderstorms, especially in the northern Alps. Also on Sunday, Pentecost day, cloudy and wet conditions are often expected, especially in the east and on the alpine order. The south and southeast, on the other hand, could start with sometimes sunny weather before strong showers and thunderstorms also come in.
