The Alpine region will get between a low over West Europe and the Western Mediterranean region and a high over East Europe in a rising southerly current. The foehn wind will become partly stormy-gusty in the mountains and provide compact clouds and repeated weak precipitation to the main Alpine ridge. North thereof, however, the foehn wind will provide sunny and dry periods, all in all, significantly more changeable weather is expected at the north side of the Alps. The inflow of warm Mediterranean air combined with the warm southerly foehn wind will result in the continuation of the early summer-like warm temperature level. This weather situation will remain unchanged until Friday. On Friday night a cold front will signal the end of the foehn wind. The weekend will be significantly cooler, however, it will bring improved weather conditions.
