New Year's Eve 2024: This is the Weather at the End of the Year
At the start of the new week, fog and high fog fields in the Rhine Valley and in the northern Alpine foothills are often very persistent. In all other areas, the fog over the lowlands usually clears up during the morning and the weather becomes predominantly sunny. The wind usually blows lightly, only in the east there is sometimes moderate west wind. Morning temperatures are between minus ten and plus two degrees, while the maximum daytime temperatures vary between minus two and plus ten degrees, with the mildest conditions again in the middle altitudes.
Year-end offers fog and sunshine
In the Rhine Valley, over the lowlands in the north, east and southeast, as well as in southern basin locations, there is widespread fog and high fog fields on Tuesday. These can be very persistent regionally and it remains cloudy in places. Away from the fog, the sunny weather continues. The wind blows weakly. Early temperatures minus ten to minus one degree, maximum daytime temperatures depending on fog, sun and altitude minus three to plus ten degrees.
On New Year's Day, there are a few flat fog fields here and there on Wednesday, which are usually only of short duration. Then the sunshine predominates. However, the sky is not unclouded, because extensive cirrus clouds spread from the north, which dampen the sunlight a little. The wind blows moderately to briskly from the Mühlviertel to the eastern edge of the Alps, otherwise the wind is weak. Early temperatures minus nine to plus two degrees, during the day with four to twelve degrees quite mild.
First precipitation in the new year
A disturbance grazes the north on Thursday. This brings some cloud fields. In parts of Upper Austria and Lower Austria, it can also rain lightly from around noon. The wind blows briskly from the southwest to the west on the north side of the Alps and in the east, otherwise it remains weaker. The early temperatures range from minus nine degrees in some Alpine valleys to two degrees in the eastern lowlands. The maximum daytime temperatures are usually between five and eleven degrees.
Friday is cloudy. In the south, there is often some sunshine in between, and it also remains dry here. Otherwise, with a snowfall limit initially between 500 and 1,000 meters, there is occasional rain, sleet or snow. Precipitation falls for a longer period of time in the Alps, where with milder air in the west the snowfall limit can also rise significantly above 1,000 meters in the afternoon. The wind mainly comes from the south to the west and blows weakly, sometimes also reviving in places. Lowest temperatures minus five to plus two degrees, maximum daytime temperatures usually between two and six degrees.
