This year, Easter Sunday will be sunny and warm, so there should be nothing standing in the way of an outdoor egg hunt. However, it is recommended to have an umbrella on hand just in case, advised Geosphere Austria on Thursday.

Good Friday starts over the Alps with residual clouds. Occasionally, it rains or snows lightly in Tyrol and Vorarlberg with a snow line around 1,000 meters above sea level. Everywhere else, the day starts sunny and dry. Gradually, however, denser clouds move in north of the main Alpine ridge as well as in the north and east. Apart from a few raindrops, it remains largely dry. From East Tyrol eastwards, sunny weather prevails in the afternoon as well. Early temperatures range from minus one to plus eight degrees, during the day there are ten to 17 degrees.

Weather over the weekend

Clouds from a warm front move in on Holy Saturday from the west north of the main Alpine ridge as well as in the north and east. With these, the sun only shines occasionally. Apart from a few raindrops in the mountainous and hilly areas, it remains largely dry. From the mid-afternoon hours, sunny weather finally prevails from Vorarlberg and Tyrol. There is significantly more sunshine in the south and southeast. The wind blows weak to moderate, in Lower Austria, Vienna, and northern Burgenland also briskly. The daily high temperatures reach ten to 20 degrees.

Easter Sunday will be sunny and mild, with a few harmless clouds. The wind blows weak to moderate from different directions. Early temperatures range between zero and seven degrees. It will be warm in all federal states with temperatures between 18 and 22 degrees.

Weather at the start of the week

North of the main Alpine ridge, some cumulus clouds form already in the morning of Easter Monday, and more clouds move in from the west. Subsequently, the likelihood of showers increases, yet the sun still appears repeatedly. It will be friendlier especially from Vorarlberg, over Tyrol and Carinthia to southeastern Styria. The wind is brisk from the west, especially in the northern and eastern lowlands. Elsewhere, the wind blows only weak to moderate from different directions. Temperatures reach 18 to 22 degrees, with the warmest conditions in the south and southeast.

A sunny and mild Tuesday ends the holidays. Regionally, it is often cloudless, only in southeastern Styria and southern Burgenland do dense clouds persist, which only slowly dissolve during the day. After early temperatures of one to eight degrees, 16 to even 24 degrees are possible.
