After a temporary influence of high-pressure we will get into a southerly current ahead of a low-pressure area over West Europe from Friday on. On Thursday, harmless clouds will mix with the sunshine as the day progresses and it will become slightly foehny in the mountains. All in all, we will experience convenient early-autumn-like weather. A strong southerly foehn wind, which will be stormy gusty in the mountains, is expected towards Friday. Very warm air masses will reach us from the western Mediterranean region, which will be augmented with lots of humidity. Therefore, a very wet southerly barrier will build up at the main Alpine ridge, which will to lesser extent spread across the north side of the Alps on Saturday. A cold front will cross our area and somewhat cooler air will advect into our area. However, a new onset of winter is not to be expected. Moreover, after the withdrawal of a front strong south foehn will continue to interfere with the weather. This means, that the south foehn at the main Alpine ridge will stay with us. At the beginning of next week, a weak cold front will cross our area, consequently weak precipitation may fall at the north side of the Alps.

South foehn will more strongly weaken a front
