Spring showed itself in its best side at Easter. That’s enough. For the next few days, bad April weather awaits us in Switzerland.
Heavy rain showers fell early Wednesday morning in parts of eastern Switzerland. Although the morning was mostly friendly, a cold front from the southwest was already advancing across the country Wednesday afternoon. Then the rest of Switzerland will have to take off their umbrellas. If they can withstand the rising wind.
April does what she wants
“We expect strong winds of 50 to 70 kilometers per hour in Mittelland,” weather expert Michael Eichmann, 28, tells Meteo News’ Blick. Strong winds can also be stronger at higher altitudes. It also needs lightning from time to time.
Snow is also expected at higher elevations. The snow line will initially be 1800 meters, but towards the evening it will drop to around 1500 meters. Thursday night the snow line finally drops below 1000 metres,” explains Eichmann. Up to half a meter of fresh snow is expected on the mountains by the end of the week.
From Thursday, the cold front will also reflect on the thermometers and will be significantly colder. “Maximum values of 8 to 9 degrees are expected in Mittelland,” says meteorologist Eichmann. Due to the unstable air masses on Thursday, isolated lightning strikes and even sleet cannot be ruled out.
In the south, the sun fights more often: whoever is in Ticino stays more or less dry.
the weekend is falling
Eichmann says Friday will be a little nicer again. “Friday may be the most weather-friendly day with temperatures as high as 12 degrees. We expect a mix of sun and clouds in Mittelland.»
But just in time for the weekend, it will be cloudy and rainy again. A strong southwesterly wind will blow across Switzerland on Saturday. Meteorologist Eichmann: “Overall, the weather is on the cloudy side – so there are a lot of clouds. In terms of rain, the focus is likely to be Saturday and it will be windy again. The snow cap at the weekend is between 1,000 and 1,300 meters,” explains Eichmann.
We can hope for better weather next week – if that’s possible.
