Current weather

A high-pressure system centered over the North Atlantic will continue to extend to the Alps and determine the weather until Friday, even though some high fog-like clouds will temporarily push into the lower valleys from the north on New Year's Eve. At the same time, a surge of polar cold air will seep in, lowering temperatures to levels appropriate for the season. However, at the beginning of the new year, slightly milder air from the southwest will reach us again for a short time. The air mass will remain very dry, and bright sunshine will continue to dominate the sky on New Year's Day. There will be a foehn wind, and harmless clouds will mix with the sun on Friday. At the same time, it will get colder again. A weak cold front will reach us on Saturday morning, bringing light to moderate snowfall for a short time. However, the weather will improve again and the sun will return to the sky during Saturday. We can even expect perfect weather again on Sunday. However, temperatures will remain distinctly wintry.
