A high-pressure system centered over the North Sea or the Baltic Sea will dominate the weather in the Alpine region over the weekend. With plenty of sunshine, cumulus clouds on both sides of the main Alpine ridge will remain harmless on Saturday. It is only on Sunday afternoon that the likelihood of showers will slightly increase, primarily on the southern side of the Alps. The temperatures will be quite warm, in some areas even early summer-like. For the upcoming week, there will still be significant uncertainties. On one hand, a föhn-like southerly wind will initially bring relatively dry and mild air. On the other hand, conditions will become increasingly unstable with the approach of a low-pressure system from the west. As things currently stand, we can expect more frequent rain and showers, especially toward the middle of the week. Temperatures are beginning to show a gradual downward trend.
