WEATHER

A low over West Europe which is reaching until the western Mediterranean Sea, will provoke striking southerly barrier effects in the Alpine region and partially result in large amounts of precipitation at the south side of the Alps. It will also affect the main Alpine divide where abundant snowfall will occur until Monday morning. As the stormy southerly foehn wind will decrease until Saturday, precipitation in weakened form may spread towards the north side of the Alps. This will also be valid for Saturday whereby the snow line will still be located between 1200m and 1400m. Last residual disturbances will withdraw towards Monday morning, significantly improved conditions will set in. More changeable conditions approaching from the south are only expected at the main Alpine divide. Moreover, thicker clouds will approach from the south towards Tuesday and weak snowfall will occur above 1000m towards Wednesday.
