Frost damage is possible

Severe frosts should be expected at night. If it wipes off temporarily in one night, which is totally possible, the temperatures might drop to around -5 degrees. And frost damage is very likely.

How rare is that?

Winter starts in April every now and then. Just two years ago, a similar weather condition brought snow to the lowlands.

Gale winds

In front of the cold front, a gusty westerly wind blows in the north during Easter. The wind can reach 50 to 80 km / h in the lowlands. It is possible to reach 110 km / h locally on the peaks. As the cold air infiltrated Monday evening, gusts of wind can be expected in some alpine valleys. In the south, the stormy northern Fühn begins on Tuesday night.
